CYNTHIA DANAHER divides the people she has worked with over the years into three types:
- There are those who say, “There’s a rat in this room, and I’m going to kill it,”
- A second group says, “There’s a rat in this room; let’s figure out a plan to kill it.”
- And a third group asks, “Did anyone notice there’s a rat in the room?”
She forgot one category … “The rats in the room.”
