“Leaders experience challenges and changes in their leadership journey just like the changing of the seasons.

I once was in a command that hired a think tank to investigate complaints about all the changes going on. The final report was that if an organization isn't constantly changing it isn't keeping up with the needs and is doomed to failure.

Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. When talking about seasons, do y’all ever wonder how and why they are like they are?
