Show Notes
Pia and Dan are joined by former corporate worker and now voluntary firefighter Sandy Quirinale.
After her second son became interested in the fire service as a teenager, Sandy decided to sign up. She’s currently the only active female firefighter at her rural New Jersey station, and so brings her insight into diversity and teamwork within this highest-of-pressure situations.
Takeaways from Dan and Pia
- Diversity allows for us to pick the right person for the job within a team.
- That in turn helps people feel less like they need to hold on to a specific task.
- Improvising and thinking outside of the box isn’t appropriate in every situation, and for every team. There is benefit to sticking with tried-and-tested methodologies.
