Opening Session Live (part 2)
Brian opens with what it means to be a UW professional. In usual Brian Gallagher fashion, pride is a theme. "We need each other," he said. He spoke about mentors that help us become the best professionals we can be.
Next, it was on to "what were we talking about 5 years ago?" We were talking about restoring pride, and creating impact. We took courageous steps toward tall orders. And we have made progress. Brand value is up, resources/revenue is up, and impact is up.
Next, challenges:
1. We're too slow. We still have old value proposition. We need to be more bold. We are making institutional progress, but we are still not making community progress at a fast enough rate.
