dok sam bila na fakultetu,

I can save time and water
da uštedim i vreme i vodu

zato što me niko nije prozivao zbog toga.
I didn't put a dish in the dishwasher

to question why I was doing it.
certified dirty-dish leaver,
ja sam overeni ostavljač prljavog posuđa,

John needs to knock on Jane's door,
da zakuca na Džejnina vrata,
without the eight pre-meetings,
bez osam pred-sastanaka,

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Elizabeth Lyle - Leadership development expertBCG's Elizabeth Lyle challenges top leaders to create high-performance, future-ready organizational cultures.
Why you should listen
In the midst of transformations, Elizabeth Lyle challenges top leaders and their teams to double-down on creating high performance, future-ready organizational cultures -- and to start by evolving their own day-to-day leadership behaviors, which sit at the core of how organizations work (and whether or not they can successfully transform).
Lyle has helped the leaders of some of the oldest, largest and most complex organizations in the world to think differently about their most valuable asset: people and their talents. She has pioneered approaches that enable leaders to change how they connect with, invest in, grow and deploy that all-important asset to unlock strategic advantage and competitive potential.
Lyle is a partner and managing director of The Boston Consulting Group, based in the firm's Boston office. She is a founding member of BCG's Leadership & Talent Enablement Center in North America. She holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a BS with Distinction from the University of Virginia's McIntire School of Commerce.
