We welcome Charlotte Mayor Pro-Tem Danté Anderson and City Councilperson Marjorie Molina to today’s episode of Getting Real With Rob.
This is an episode where listening between the lines is how to truly enjoy the discussion. If we’d begun the interview by asking each of them for a pedigree of education, experience, degrees, and accomplishments, we’d still be talking. Our guests are two intelligent, dedicated, personable, and approachable leaders, whose ability to create a familiar and warm environment is almost incongruent with the challenges they’ve navigated as they rose to success. They were candid and revealing during our familiar lightning round. And candid and honest during the questions.
If we’d only had more time; but we believe this episode was exactly as it was meant to be.
What is the content? Listen to Rob deftly humanize the issues near and dear to two people who represent a great deal of talent and passion for the City of Charlotte. Hear him uncover their deepest goals for their service as leaders in one of the most influential cities in America. What are their passions? Quantitative and qualitative information is just one strategy they use. As well as applying metrics as the lens for debate and decision, so outcomes can be measured and leveraged for even more progress. Even their cadence of speech suggested patience and listening: Stop and slow things down and look at the future based on collective priorities and meaningful debate. Mayor Pro-Tem Anderson brought up the need for digital equity. A term that should not be underestimated in terms of equalizing opportunity. Councilperson Molina shared the extreme importance of understanding the overlap of what feels like repetitive information but that is necessary in dissecting information. It’s how she digs into facts and doesn’t gloss over them. Both emphasized the need for sensible and immediate solutions are needed to create housing that is affordable for work-force employees throughout the region.
The rest of this episode -- although flooded with valuable opinion and stunning fact -- is pure pleasure.
