Welcome (back) to my career blog!
When we last met at this blog about 3 years ago, I was wrapping up my work with the City and County of Denver and musing about what I was going to do when I grew up. It was only two months later that I began the next adventure as the Governor's Designee for Employee Partnerships in Governor Ritter's office. It has been a very gratifying experience working with the extremely competent men and women who make up the Governor's leadership team.
Most of you know that, in January, the Governor announced that he had decided, for personal reasons, not to run for re-election. While I plan to see my work through to the end of his term, I'm now turning my attention again to what I will do in my professional life.
I will be building this site over the next few months to assist me in that search. In the meantime, I'm retaining a number of the links to older blog entries which tell a lot about who I am, what I do, and how I do it. Look again in a few months as I build this site into a tool for my next exploration.
It is always an interesting challenge to describe what I do as well as how I do it in a concise and accurate way. I’ve done this with several images. “Untying knots” is one. Specifically, I’ve often been put into ambiguous or conflict-laden situations. My response is to proceed from problem definition to achieving some degree of congruence – all in an orderly and transparent manner.
I’ve attempted to distill some of that insight in a series of links. I encourage you to select one or more of these – even if only out of curiosity. I trust that this is less intrusive than a long e-mail follow-up would be. For more information on what kinds of challenges appeal to me, click here.
