"I feel like I have this moral obligation to pull the greatness out of our team. A lot of the reasons why I want to grow the company is not for any of my own accomplishments, but it's to achieve their greatness and see that their potential is so big. What we have already accomplished is great, but we could do so much more, for the country, for our people, for our region, and nothing would make me happier than seeing that unfold."
