I had an open door policy. I absolutely follow up with people that I'm mentoring and I'm aware that mentoring is a social action.

How else did that manifest other than a first day email? Well, needless to say, I'm a talker.

Audie Cornish is a journalist and the former host of NPR’s All Things Considered. Her new CNN Audio podcast is The Assignment.

“I think there is journalism inherent in an interview. Like the interview itself should be considered a piece of journalism. It isn't always.
