• Let staffers do their job. (Empower employees to make decisions; they know their target audience and community best).
• Find the magic makers. (Hire those who "take responsibility, take risks, and have an entrepreneural spirit.")
• Allow people to own their own mistakes. ("if you screw up, you clean up.")
• Take charge in crisis. (Day says, "If I can trust that my employees will be there for me, they need to trust that I'm there for them.")
