Some of you may know that I've been working on an MBA degree, via a distance ed program. (Yes, I already have a Ph.D. This is a mid-career action, for me.) I'm trying to get an overdue homework assignment completed before this weekend's in-person classes, and am asking for your help. It's an opportunity to send a little feedback to me. While Project Gutenberg has always been a volunteer activity, not my primary workplace (it's www.arsc.edu, if you are interested), it's a leadership role that I value and take seriously. The homework is for a leadership class I'm taking. Two questions: 1. How do you experience leadership, in Gregâs presence? (This question is about you, not about Greg. For example, in interaction, planning, meetings, thinking, tasks, deadlines, etc. when you and Greg are part of the team. This isnât about what you think about Greg, itâs about your own experience.) 2. Whatâs the single thing you think itâs most important for Greg to get better at? This question is about Greg, and is intended to be focused on the workplace. Please respond to me directly, unless you'd rather send to the list. I realize that #1 is a little hard to understand (it is for me, too!), but is intended to get at the emergent and co-invention aspect of leadership. Of course, it means electronic presence, not physical presence, for most folks on the list. -- Greg Dr. Gregory Newby, Director of the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center Univ of Alaska Fairbanks-909 Koyukuk Dr-PO Box 756020-Fairbanks-AK 99775-6020 e: gbnewby@alaska.edu v: 907-450-8663 f: 907-450-8603 w: people.arsc.edu/~newby Dr. Gregory B.
