Good “Saturday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to the weekend from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 29 January 2022!
Today’s Message is: “Transition Day!” Why Not?
“A leader must prepare and be ready for transition. What I call passing the torch to the next generation of leaders they’ve developed, mentored, and coached. This is where you must bring your best professional self to the table and not let your emotions derail a smooth transition of power. Your values and core commitments to the team and organization will let them know you’re ready to move on. Don’t drop the torch!" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
