The wisdom of each honoree is apparent, and it\u2019s clear that this year\u2019s class is made up of driven professionals who have learned more in their careers so far than many experience by the time of retirement. In this self-reflection, we get a look inside the things that drive each honoree to excel. From learning the power of risk-taking to honing their ability to listen to col- leagues, these insights provide a glimpse into the values that have helped each honoree succeed in housing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congratulations to the 2022 class of Rising Stars who are carving out their own paths forward with the lessons learned along the way.
