Ft Huachuca Section wins First Expense Report Submitted (R6) Award Following IEEEUSA Meeting
Keith from the FortHuachuca section has submitted the First Expense Report I've gotten!
Thats pretty fast. He printed, signed and scanned his expense report back to a PDF and emailed it to me.. so even if someone Mailed it before they left Indy, Keith's is the first one I got.
Thanks..
By the way, it seems my Estimate of the taxed on the hotel were a little off, so I am Raising the allowance per section to $702.48 (unless there was a higher allowance.) as it will not cause us to exceed the limits on the funding allocated for this purpose!
Congratulations Keith

Understanding How a Coach might help you
By way of Greg Wilson I ran across a few of the Google Tech Talk "Coaching" series.
Among the many benefits Google offers it's employees (free lunches, fun work etc) is access to "career coaches" to help employee's reach the next level. So what you say.. how does this help me? Well as part of their program they invited several of their coaches to give presentations - which like most "tech talks" are recorded and made available to the rest of us.. (thanks Google!)
to see this series go to the tech talks page and add "coaching" to the list of search terms..
I've not watched all of these yet, but I CAN recommend a couple..
Coaching Series: Leading from Strength: Making a Difference
Coaching Series: Accomplishing More By Doing Less
and there is one presentation that will Help YOU improve your ability to communicate with those you interact with, the core of the coaching (and influencing) process.
Coaching Series: Impactful Communication
-- Which video do you like the best?
should we have a presentation like that for one of our meetings?
Have you worked with a coach before ? Can you tell us how that did or did not work?
