PART 7: 'Convince Me' with Kristen Schnepp-Giger Artemis
-
- Wilderness
When Pennsylvania game commissioner Kristen Schnepp-Giger is confronted with a decision, she takes stock of her gut feeling and then goes to the other side and lets them try to convince her. It's her way of making sure she's hearing all sides to a particular issue, and what the consequences of her decisions mean to others. In the seventh installment of the Artemis Leadership Series, we talk about having hard discussions, building relationships, keeping your composure, and knowing your own limits. For instance, whenever you tell yourself something like, "I don't have time for that" -- are you really trying to say, "I don't want to do that"?
