On a quick Thirty Days of Thought sidebar, our very own Jay Doran is keeping the spirit of the series while taking a quick detour to discuss resourcefulness.  The discussion revolves around understanding your limitations as well as pushing your boundaries in leadership positions as well as recognizing that the people you keep around you are going to be a barometer for how others view you.  It's a quick one today, but has all that Thirty Days of Thought flavor on this episode of The Culture Matters Podcast.
