U.S. Consul General to Casablanca Lawrence Randolph talks about being a sincerely interested diplomat and using diversity as our strength. In his growth as a leader, he emphasizes mentorship and sponsorship, learning local languages and cultures, being open to new opportunities, and the secret strength of American diplomacy – creating diverse teams. He underscores the need to do outreach to Americans; how emotional intelligence, preparation, humility and straightforward resilience helps overcome moments of “imposter syndrome”; and how being one’s “authentic self” on the job both models good leadership and achieves good work-life balance.  **Brought to you as part of an Una Chapman Cox Foundation project on American diplomacy and the Foreign Service.
