As a leader, you must ensure that you fully understand every document and decision that bears your signature. Be mission-aligned, strategic, thoughtful, intentional, objective, fair and equitable, data-informed, and evidence-informed as you make routine and important decisions. Never rubber-stamp documents. Also, be mindful that your decisions must be made in a timely manner. Keep in mind that every decision you make can and will be scrutinized now and by future generations.
