Over the past fifteen years I have had the opportunity to interview thousands of business people. Every so often we come up on an unexpected story line and the interview just clicks. This is one of those times. Before I met Kylie Gottschalk I assumed we would talk about her new role as a Tero Trainer but the more I heard, the story evolved. This turned into a lesson on how important it is for a company to really tune into the possibilities you're hearing in that interview process. Something Tero International did and the result is amazing.
