About This Quote

I don't have to be the smartest person in the room, I just have to be in the room. This is one of those simple things that sounds really great but takes a bit of thought to really understand. Basically it means that you don't have to be the smartest person in the room, you just have to be there. Why? Because if you are not there then you are not going to know all that is going on. So if someone comes up with an idea that's better than yours, then you can still be there and learn from them.
