Her early Saturday morning talk was about leadership.
One sentence that I remember and have repeated so much since hearing it was: (And I may not have this quote perfect, here!)
"A leader listens so that she may change her mind."
That is a very short sentence. That is also a very powerful sentence.
Thanks, Dr. Baker for challenging me to think about whether I am a good leader.

Dr Baker did a wonderful job with her leadership presentation. One of the many quotes I wrote down is:
"You can't be a good leader if no one will follow you."
She also spoke of a point I learned in the Air Force. A good leader does the dirty work when needed before others. In Dr Baker's example: she grabbed a mop and cleaned the bathrooms at the zoo. Perfect example!
