So, it’s been awhile since I last blogged.  The past month and a half has been insanely hectic at work.  We have been working hard to produce the FY18 financial statements for the University while working alongside the auditors, all to meet an October 12 deadline.  Barring any top-level comments from the audit partner, I think we are finally in good shape.  I must admit that PSEL activities took a back seat during this time, but I did manage to sneak in a few of the executive group interviews with Rich Bundy, Steve Dunham, Neil Sharkey, and most recently, Tom Poole.  All were very interesting and had some good stories to tell.  There were some very different leadership “philosophies” among the different leaders, so it was interesting to compare their approaches.  I look forward to breathing again at work, and hopefully focusing a bit more back on PSEL as we come into these final months.
