What responsibilities do you feel as a business leader in your community and why?
As a business leader, I think it’s important to show intention and integrity. To whom much is given, much is required. That’s what I was taught growing up. It’s the duty of business leaders to do just that. We are required to lead.
To whom much is given, much is required.
