Sr. Vice Chancellor @DeleDaviesMD: Advice for deans and directors:

Dr. Keith Allen @unmc_mmi: "I recently hosted listening sessions for my team and it has been both powerful and humbling. Now that I'm an empty nester, I realized that I forgot how hard it is to have children at home. It was a wake up call to really listen to be an ally."
