| Greetings Division 2 Auxiliarists,
The kids are back in school, the days are getting shorter, the leaves are falling and that can only mean one thing… USCG Auxiliary Elections are right around the corner! Opportunities abound for inspired Auxiliarists to step up to elected leadership positions at all four flotillas and the division levels. To make this a successful venture with the necessary outcome, WE NEED YOU… the member to not only consider an elected or appointed leadership role yourself by taking an active role in the election process by voting for the best candidates. After the votes have been tallied, the bridges elect will build their staff and plot their course for our areas of responsibility for the coming year. At the various levels of leadership, the bridges will be reviewing their rolls and considering the strength of various members, including you. If approached for additional responsibility please carefully consider the need we have for great people, like you to fill these positions. Those who can, do. Be a part of this statement if your skills, time and energy allow. Once you step into this new role, you are not alone and on your own. Look to the previous keepers of the gate. You should always receive a physical material handoff regarding the status of where the job is currently, what has been done and in the eyes of the previous officer, what still needs to be done. The Chain of Leadership and concept of parallel staffing can also greatly assist you in your new job. Wonderful nuggets of wisdom can be gleaned by communicating both up and down the chain for your particular office. Please don’t hesitate to contact me, Noel Paterson our Division Vice Commander or those more directly in you leadership track with questions about where opportunities and needs may lie. Over the next couple of months begin to carefully consider how you can best serve. Don’t wait for others, be a mover and shaker! Yours in Service, John E. Burreson Division Commander 130-02 United States Coast Guard Auxiliary 1509 Warren Avenue North Seattle, WA 98109 206.448.6363 (home) 206.271.9095 (wireless) dcdr02@d13cgaux.org | |||
