Listen to Dalton Roberts’s podcast about what he learned from former Mayor Robert Kirk Walker

By “secrets” I do not mean that these lessons are hidden. To the contrary, the skills and powers of people we work under are often as plain as the nose on your face. But how often are you mindful of the nose on your face?
