Kitty,

 

As you know, Geoff has lots of stories - about helicopters, web portals, and health care - but the axe story just gives you chills. Thanks for tipping us off to his latest research.

So Satisfying: Leading From the Middle in the Coast Guard

Geoff Abbott, a great public servant in his own right, has been telling this story since it happened during Hurricane Katrina, and now his newly completed doctoral research makes it even more compelling.  Read the story!  And the next time you're feeling powerless or unable to do anything, think about Geoff's underlying message.

Great blog post for trainers:

Excerpt:
"It‘s not always enough just to know your job. Be known for something different than everyone else, become a Subject Matter Expert (SME). It has to be useful and relevant and in doing so it will not only attract the attention of your boss but also your friends, co-workers and others who upon learning about your unique set of skills or knowledge can bring opportunities your way.
