Nominees will be judged on their role as business or non-profit leaders. We're looking for entrepreneurs and executives whose efforts are molding their workplace and their industry.

Please answer all of the questions completely and refrain from any supplementary collateral. Any nominations submitted in a press release format will not be accepted.

Hello Elaine,
ReplyDeleteI hope that this message finds you well. I want you to know that I enjoy reading the posts that you have placed on this website. You have done a wonderful job of heightening community awareness and motivating Mt Lebanon residents to take an interest in local affairs.
I feel that you deserve community recognition. Therefore, I would like so see our community find a way to include your input into MtL Magazine, our community funded publication.
Does anyone know what succession plan is in place when the current staff retire? I would like to see Elaine Gillen take over the reigns of MtL Magazine and channel her fine work on to a platform that will communicate the pressing issues to Mt Lebanon residents.
How about it everyone? Can we all work to get Elaine a place in municipal government? At the very least she should have a voice in the content of our community magazine.
That is very nice of you to say, John. I don't know the first thing about running a magazine. Thanks anyway. I appreciate your kind words.

Elaine, management tasks can be delegated; but I think that new leadership is desperately needed.
ReplyDeleteAt the very least, wouldn't you like to serve on a panel of (perhaps three) Mt Lebanon citizens that determine the content of the magazine? It would be nice to have your perspectives communicated rather than quashed.
It's up to you, but it's an issue that our community should consider - even if you don't want the opportuntiy.
Again, thank you - in fact, thank all of your for your relentless efforts to enlighten the vast silent majority who share your ideals and values.
