Roger S. Nam is Professor of Hebrew Bible and Director of the Doctor of Ministry Program at Emory University Candler School of Theology.

How do you acquire agency, get accurate information, and gain the trust of colleagues? Who do you approach? How do you ask for help when you are an inexperienced beginner and need support?
