CHILDREN'S AID SOCIETY: NEW YORK TIMES PROFILE by Adam Bryant

Richard R. Buery:

“One great lesson was that there is nothing that’s not possible. . . . People understood that we were serious and that we had confidence. You have to show that you have that confidence. Not false bravado—if you have challenges, you let people know what the challenges are—but you need to show people that you’re serious, you had thought it through and had contingencies in place.”
