WHAT’S THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE YOU’VE EVER RECEIVED?
My father, John McCanuel, is my mentor in business and in life. I have been incredibly fortunate to learn a lot from him. The best piece of advice he ever gave me was to surround myself with a diverse group of people, because people who think differently than you will continue to challenge you but you must respect and listen to everything your team brings to the table. When you truly listen, the answer to almost every problem is right in front of you! You, as a leader, just have to pick the best one.
