But there are a lot of things that will come out that they would never even have thought to bring up as you watch them. And you’ll come back to them afterward and say, ‘I saw you do this and this. Talk to me about that.’ and then all of the sudden you’ve opened up a whole new can of worms and it’s powerful.” 11:59https://www.linkedin.com/in/featheringham/
