No weekend break in the new regime! They‘ve fallen in love with the trick of posting big news on a Friday night. This week it was the firing of three top officers at the Pentagon. After previously firing the Coast Guard commandant. I wonder why??
As a #longtimefed I sometimes had the opportunity to see high-level officials in person. I also saw four POTUS speak, from much farther away than I was for GEN Powell. Clinton was the best speaker.
Happy Presidents‘ Day* to those who celebrate.
Some good ones who must be looking on in horror at what we‘ve become, and some bad ones who must be patting themselves on the back for their part in getting us here.
IMHO part of the job of President is respecting the people who work for you. ALL of them. In this time of “narratives over facts,” starting tomorrow I‘ll share a few narratives about my experience as a #longtimefed employee.
pickOne of the best non-fiction, personal growth books I have ever read. Told in a story format with very relatable examples. This book has useful information for people at all stages of life.
The Fearless Organization was my November pick for #12BooksOf2024. I borrowed an e-copy from the library and did a LOT of highlighting -- and then it got returned automatically when the loan was up 😂 I'll have to borrow it again to get the highlights back.
pickAbsolutely loved it. Great lessons on leadership in an approachable fashion. Less tedious than most leadership books which focus on building systems. They use examples from events they experienced while deployed in Iraq do illustrate leadership principles that can be widely applied.
pickThis was great. I highlighted a lot in the ebook copy but had to return it to the library, so I have to borrow it again so that I can retrieve the highlighting 😂
so-soThis was just meh. But it might be ok if you're a new manager and didn't already read dozens of these. Julie is a Facebook veteran and does talk about some of her more senior coworkers but overall 🤷
