I will be facilitating a Community Dialogue in Cheyenne, WY for the Corporation for National and Community Service.  This ‘listening’ session will gather the wisdom, knowledge, and recommendations from  service commissions, AmeriCorps/VISTA members, volunteer centers, nonprofits, foundations, and businesses for the Corporation’s Strategic Plan.

There will be a lot of listening, documenting and gathering of these voices of knowledge and experience that will inform and enlighten CNCS’s strategic guide.

Have you heard that the Serve America Act dramatically expands the field of national service and that ‘service’ now plays a major role in addressing communities’ most pressing problems!

Have you heard where the CNCS Community Dialogue will be in your state?   It is time to have your voice heard and to make a significant contribution to the agency that leads the service movement.

I am delighted to be part of the ‘Listening’ Sessions….for ‘Listening’ is one of the great marks of ‘Leadership’.

“It is the province of knowledge to speak. And it is the privilege of wisdom to listen.”    Oliver Wendell Holmes
