Up And Coming
I'm now an official graduate of the Emerging Leaders Institute, a professional development program sponsored by the State of Minnesota. I'll probably be "emerging" for some time to come. If all goes well, I should have enough years remaining in my public service career to figure out what this leadership business is all about. I'm already beginning to work on improving my assertiveness. So, watch out, cute women in elevators. I might start greeting you with an unsolicited "Hello" or even "How are you?" I'm getting dizzy just thinking about it.
Here's a picture of me and my fellow emergent leaders: 
I'm the one in the middle, in case you couldn't tell.

Is that the same program that has summer internships for students with disabilities? I met some people from there at the AHEAD program a couple years back. If it's the same program, I vote you should volunteer to represent them at AHEAD this year, and then we can party in Reno!
