I read a great article (opinion piece) from the Kansas Leadership Center this week about how can we emerge from the fog of polarization amid not only COVID-19 but the challenges in 2020. There was one line that really stood out to me. "In the short-term this looks like holding both radical empathy and radical accountability for public officials." Read the full article on how we as leaders can emerge ahead.

I think this is extremely important for not only our city leaders but business & education leaders, churches, organizations and really for each other. We cannot hide from the difficult decisions nor can we attack every time we disagree on a decision. Empathy and accountability are both important.
