my leader (well, she’s my manager anyway) doesn’t particularly want to keep in touch. it has boggled my mind for over 2 years since she came to our department. in order to get her to read one of my emails i have to have the subject line say: GAIL PLEASE READ and mark it as high importance.
her manager, however, did read my email voicing a concern on the same day i sent it and responded with a phone call. i still talk about it to my colleagues and it was 5 months ago.
I’d like to comment on what a great example of transparency, commitment and down-to-earth-ness this is, and how every other CEO, boss, and manager could take a lesson, because, if the President of the United States can find time to respond to letters like this, how can they say THEY don’t have the time?! Really, I would like to comment!
Unfortunately, since Crescenzo dubbed me with the dubious title of “apologist for all things Obama” on HIS blog, I don’t dare, lest I be written off on that basis.
I’ll look forward to OTHER people’s comments on this though!!
😉
Kristen, perhaps you can safely comment on the skill of the filmmakers in capturing the milk chocolate High Definition goodness of our handsome president?
… possibly I’d also be safe noting the smooth and reassuring cadence of his voice in the voice-over, and the calming, yet upbeat and non-partisan nature of the smile Obama sports in the video.
