Pete and Skoo clear up mistakes (remember we aren't Caucus or City Government Experts) from Friday's show as well as offer up suggestions on how The Executive Caucus Committee can help not have the perception of a friends club or groupthink. Before the Friday show Pete asked the President of the Caucus Kim Pfahl how The Executive Committee was picked, The answer was. 1) "You raise your hand saying you have an interest" 2) "You go through mentorship for a year" 3) "It's really up to the President and Vice President to decide because it is really their executive committee they want to have and how they want to do it" The answer Pete was given led him to that conclusion of Group Think and Friends Club THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE IS VOTED ON Pete got that wrong. Pete should have said that the Members who are put on the Ballot for Executive Committee are not vetted or voted on by the Caucus Committee. The Executive Caucus Committee Candidate's merits were never discussed before the Spring Meeting nor were their qualifications discussed or voted on to be placed on the ballot. Pete never heard anything in his Ward meetings regarding Mentorships, nor was asked if he was interested. Part of the confusion stems from the bylaws not being updated on the Lake Forest Caucus website. (It's a dead page) Pete was reading the 2016 Bylaws. Here is a clip someone sent us from the updated bylaws in 2020 Section 4.03 Election. Candidates for Officer positions shall be recommended annually for office by the current Executive Committee from among the members in good standing of the Caucus Committee and shall be presented for election at the Spring Meeting. Does this appear to let the Influence of the Executive Board continue in perpetuity unless the officers are challenged in the one-hour Spring meeting? This gives the perception of a closed vote to be on the Ballot. It's a process problem. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lakeforestil/message

RAMW is a trade association that represents restaurants and the foodservice industry in the D.C. area. For five years, Hollinger has observed and navigated massive changes in the city’s food scene—from the Michelin guide to the current pop-up craze. 2017 brought more of the same for D.C.: a slew of new openings and accolades. Hayes asks Hollinger about how the industry struggles to staff its many new openings, what The Wharf means for D.C. dining, and the realities of being a dynamic, growing industry in a major city. They had this conversation as a part of City Paper’s annual People Issue, which came out last month. Subscribe to the show on iTunes to ensure you get all our episodes as soon as they come out.

One of the biggest challenges for any organisation is managing risk and for HR professionals, their people are at the heart of creating a secure organisation. With up to 96% of cyber security breaches owing to human, rather than technological error, it is imperative that an organisation’s people, its management and its processes are well prepared. In the first of two episodes we look at the cyber security risks facing organisations today – a threat which the UK Government estimates cost £27 billion annually. We’ll hear from representatives from CIPD, Safer Jobs, the Corsham Institute, Cyber Insider and Cifas, the UK’s largest cross-sector fraud sharing database. We’ll be discussing the key role HR professionals play in managing people risk and the steps they can take to ensure their people processes are contributing to maintaining a secure organisation.
