Strangely, after three weeks of endless touring and levity,
its seems right to be back in camp. The team is exhausted from the last couple
of weeks. The Helo crash and its
aftermath, a couple of car bombs against convoys and an earthquake which
rattled the camp pretty good, has taken its toll. No time to rush in with meetings and action
items. So we spend time laughing where
we can. The duty cycle has not slowed one bit.
What was critical three weeks ago, is now passé. There are other pressing problems, and all
have a budget dimension to them. Yet,
its near Halloween so our next Division get-together will be costumed themed to
help lighten the mood. As a leader, your
job is to sense the mood and adjust work accordingly. They seem genially glad to have me back, and
equally glad that I am in costume.
