kind of three categories. One is in terms of the team and people, obviously, you know, the work is really

for a position like mine, it's really about building the team and then enabling them to obviously

do what they do. So I've got some thoughts on that. In terms of tooling, sharpening the

axe, lots of lessons learned there.

And in terms of just the intangibles for a company that's growing as fast as we did, which

I'm sure that's of interest to everybody, clearly lots of leadership mistakes and lessons

learn there.

And I promise none of this is going to be that earth-shattering,

so it's really just based on kind of practical experience.
