From Your 2003 NMA Chairman of the Board...
The
National Management Association, a Changing Face
(back to top of NMA Breaktime)
Dan Robertson, CM
2003 Chairman of the Board
Lockheed Martin Leadership Association
Fort Worth, Texas
Recently I was asked to write an article for NMA Breaktime. I went to my files and looked at some old articles. One that particularly caught my eye was an article written by the 1997 NMA Chairman of the Board, Mr. Bill Swan. He followed up on an article written by the 1998 NMA Chairman, Mr. Bill Smelley, CM. Both of the articles were written about the North Texas Council but I feel they apply to the NMA. I would like to take Bill Swan’s insightful article and relate it to the National level of the NMA. In the June 1996 issue of the North Texas Council Newsletter, Bill Smelley carried a very thoughtful article about the growth of the North Texas Council. His article was right on! The founders of the North Texas Council, all three of them from two Chapters, would meet at a local Red Lobster, halfway between Dallas and Fort Worth. There was a great appreciation for the tremendous change that had taken place over a 4 to 5 year period. At that time the North Texas Council had grown to six Chapters, and that was a remarkable change.
This is where Bill Smelley left off and Bill Swan started with his Reflections. The excellence that the National Management Association has achieved brings with it a responsibility. It is up to the National Organization to MGE:
·
Maintain the excellence
Grow
to new levels and
Encourage Chapters/Councils to be model
examples.
So how do the Chapters and National MGE? Here are some thoughts.
First the M:
National has continued to conduct some outstanding Leadership Development Conferences over the past few years, constantly reviewing the content and timeliness of the subjects discussed. Ask this question: Are LDCs serving the National’s main customer, the Chapter/Councils?
Second the G:
In order for an organization to achieve excellence, it needs to always be looking to take on new challenges and then build on that foundation. The NMA is already a leader here. Look at recent developments in Professional Development, such as FaciliSkillstm and the McGraw Hill initiative to develop short, special courses to meet Chapter needs. The NMA needs your help. As we compete for the future it is important that the Chapters and Councils take a leadership role in helping with new chapter development. Our nation is ripe for growing, particularly when it comes to providing professional development and personal growth. Just think how the quickly the North Texas Council grew to six active Chapters and the impact that could have towards demonstrating the value of NMA on a company. The value of affiliation is clearer when several Chapters come together and speak with a unified voice.
In meeting the G it is important that the Chapters/Councils also consider how to continue to provide increased services to their members.
And Third the E:
Share the model for success with other Chapters/Councils through newsletter sharing. How about a Chapter/Council display at the Leadership Development Conferences? Maybe plan a joint activity with the neighboring Chapters or Councils.
MGE is the changing face of the NMA. When we look into the mirror, let us see the reflection of a strong organization.
We are competing for the future. Together Chapters and Councils and the whole NMA will face the challenge of change. Together, change will be a friend and not an enemy. Let’s continue to grow the world's best kept secret for professional development and personal growth.

Alan R. Watson, CM
2004 NMA National Secretary
Space Gateway Chapter
Kennedy Space Center, Florida
As we sit in the comfort of our homes in the evening, watching the news, perhaps pondering the day we had at work or where ever we were, we did so in relative comfort. We take for granted some of the niceties and safeties that some aren't privileged to. As our two thousand dollar recliner does exactly what it was designed to do, as that Sleep Number Bed takes away all the aches and pains we developed during our hard day in the office, some may be experiencing something different. Those representing us in the deserts of Iraq and other foreign countries have a different approach to the evening or daylight hours in which they have time to relax. Imagine going out to your backyard or even on your patio, possibly to prepare your grill for that steak that's marinating in the fridge. You see a tiny bug and a slight chill goes up your back, you wince a little and smack it with a rolled up newspaper, or you crank up that 400 dollar "Bug-Zapper" you bought last summer when you experienced the sting of 3 mosquitoes. Ah the comforts of home, we have pampered ourselves and have become accustomed to minimal dangers in our domicile environment.
Now close your eyes
for a minute and put yourself in the boots of a 20 year old young man or woman
in the Iraqis town of Baghdad or any of the other outlying communities. No
running water, no bathtubs, no A/C, YES, I SAID NO A/C.... eating out of a
plastic bucket or if they are lucky, one of the new and improved plastic field
dining wares. After a week or so, all the food tastes like dust, because
it's normally covered in it, within a couple of minutes of squatting down. (I
know what you are thinking, yeah they have buildings over there, but most of our
soldiers prefer to eat away from those buildings that may or may not explode at
any given minute) Are your eyes still closed.... are you visually
going there??? After their 18 hour shift they are wanting, no.... let's say they
are now needing some rest. The Sgt's are trying to find a safe place for
them (our kids) to catch a few hours sleep, so a tent is quickly placed and cots
are now looking very inviting to our young men and women representing us in this
war on terrorism. We have NMA Family members over there, now preparing for
a rest cycle that would scare most people into cardiac arrest. Not knowing
who the enemy is, where they are or when they will present themselves doesn't
exactly make for a peaceful nights rest. But rest is coming and it's
coming fast, after watching your butt for 18 hours, hearing the explosions not a
half a block away, the constant small arms fire, the screaming and yelling in a
language that you can't understand and probably
wouldn't
want to if you could. It's not a sleep that you and I have in our American
homes, it's not the "Goodnight Dear" experience that we enjoy every night, it's
the can't hold your eyes open any longer, it's the exhaustion brought on by an
adrenalin loss that has to be recovered. It's the I don't care about
brushing my teeth, or taking a hot shower, or tucking the kids in type of
closure we take for granted every evening, it's the lay down where you can and
close your eyes and pray that you wake up in the morning type sleep.
Can you fathom that, can you place yourself in that hole for one day, for one
hour? And to make matters
worse,,,
somewhere along the line, just to add a little touch of reality to our troops,
these spiders are thrown into the mix. Not your common garden variety of
bug that is the size of a key on your keyboard, these bugs could instill fear in
a 2000 pound Kodiak Bear if bitten by one.
Now open your eyes and realize that we have these freedoms, we have these comforts, we have these privileges because we fight for them, we die for them and we pay for them. Now what is the Free in Freedom? Ask one of your family members when they return from Iraq or Afghanistan or any of the other countries that they are fighting in, what was free over there? Then ask them if they would go back. You will hear the surprise of your life, in a heartbeat they would go back and face that hell again, for you, their families and for the freedom of people they don't even know.
Does that recliner seem a little different now, does that clean water coming out of your faucet have different taste, does the sound of your silverware have a different tone when coming in contact with your good china, can you walk down the street in your neighborhood with a renewed sense of pride? If you can, the next time you are in the airport and see one of our returning sons and daughters, thank them for enduring the Spider, thank them for volunteering to put themselves in harms way for us. Let them know that there won't be another Viet Nam War, where the Servicemen and women had to sneak back into the states, to keep from being ridiculed, harassed and made fun of. Place that yellow ribbon on a tree in your front yard and keep it there till everyone is home.
This isn't about promoting war, it's about keeping, enjoying and sharing the freedoms that we take for granted.

NMA Announces 2004 McFeely Award Recipient
NMA has announced that
Norman R. Augustine will receive the prestigious Wilbur M. McFeely Award for
2004. Mr. Augustine is a retired Chairman and CEO of the former Martin Marietta
Corporation and later the Lockheed Martin Corporation. In addition to serving
in the Pentagon in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, he is a former Acting
Secretary of the Army, past Chairman and Principal Officer of the American Red
Cross (for nine years), former President of the Boy Scouts of America,
celebrated author (including Augustine’s Laws which was printed in four
languages), and retired Lecturer with the Rank of Professor on the faculty of
the Princeton University. Augustine has served on numerous industrial,
professional, government, university, and not-for-profit boards. In his free
time, he has traveled to both Poles and participated in an amazing array of
outdoor “adventures” in every corner of the world.
The award presentation will be held on Sunday afternoon, September 19th, as part of the 2004 NMA National Conference at the Sheraton Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The McFeely Award, New to NMA
With NMA and the International Management Council (IMC) joining forces in 2004, the Association’s leadership has chosen to continue the proud IMC tradition of the McFeely Award. Recipients are individuals who have made outstanding contributions to leadership and management development, gaining national and international recognition for their books, articles, lectures, and other similar contributions.
The McFeely Award was created in 1975 in recognition of Mr. McFeely’s energetic leadership and loyalty to the IMC and YMCA as well as his contributions to the field of human relations in management. Wilbur M. McFeely served in many roles, including IMC National President in 1945-1946 and Chairman of the National Board of YMCAs from 1966-1969. Being world-minded, he also became interested in the YMCA Center for International Management Studies and participated in several exchange programs here and abroad. McFeely’s friends established this award as a tribute to this creative, thinking man who lived up to the highest ideals of his faith. We are honored to now join with the heritage IMC members in presenting this most prestigious award to such a recognized and published author and business leader.
This year will mark the 29th anniversary of the McFeely Award. Our sincere thanks go to members of the McFeely family who continue to fund the award presentation.

Colonel Bud Day, Congressional Medal of Honor winner, spoke to a crowd of 105 (including more than 30 guests) at the Fort Walton Beach Golf and Country Club for the local Boeing chapter of the National Management Association. Col. Day served in the Marines during WWII, then joined the Air Force and served in both Korea and Vietnam. Shot down over North Vietnam on August 26, 1967, he was captured and became a prisoner of war for 67 months. Col. Day is the nation’s most decorated officer with over 70 awards, including every significant combat award. Col. Day has written two books. His first book, Return With Honor, was written soon after he retired from active duty in 1977 and details the ordeal of his years as a POW. His second book, Honor, Duty, Country is a chronicle of his latest war, suing the U.S. Government for lifetime veteran health benefits. In February 2001, he won a major victory for World War II and Korean retirees in the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. The court acknowledged the government had breached its contract to provide retirees and their spouses free lifetime medical care. Col. Day is a lawyer in Shalimar, near Fort Walton Beach and continues to work when most people would have chosen retirement years ago. To learn more about Col. Day, visit his website at http://www.colbudday.com/. It was an honor and a privilege to have Col. Day speak at the gathering. He received a standing ovation from the audience. |

United
Space Alliance Leadership Association (USALA) Brings Our Troops HOME

Janet Morris
United Space Alliance Leadership Association
Houston, Texas
United Space Alliance (USA) Leadership Association (USALA) Texas and Florida chapters in conjunction with our organization, USA, and in partnership with our National Management Association (NMA) membership, worked together to plan a campaign to gather funds to ship packages overseas to a point of contact for the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marines. The acronym for the campaign was Help Our Military Endure (HOME).
During Phase
I in the Spring of 2003 (led by our
Professional Development Director Phil Restivo, who thought of this idea),
approximately $1,400 was raised to
purchase items supporting 74 care packages
for the Marines, due to a shipping contact already established to ship the packages
to. However, in Phase II, the
program was expanded. A golf tournament was arranged, contacts set up, and
the program took off like a bullet. Thanks to the leadership of
Bob Elledge (previous Public Relations
Director for USALA -Texas), the program collect over
$14,000! The response was tremendous, and the level
at which Bob Elledge performed his leadership was unprecedented. Packages
were shipped in October/November.
In fact, Mr. Elledge received the monthly Community Service award at USA
(called a Quest for Excellence) for his work. Bob spent
many of his own hours, drove to San Antonio
and Dallas to make sure the packages got to the shipping point, and conveyed
a spirit of enthusiasm, respect, encouragement, compassion, and PASSION. He
was dedicated to its success and went well above and beyond to make it
successful. Bob quoted the following:
We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give. (Winston Churchill)
It came so clear with HOME that USALA and USA truly enjoy the giving.

USA Leadership
Association Reaches Out to Seniors
(back to top of NMA Breaktime)
By Janet Morris, President
United Space Alliance Leadership
Association (USALA)
Houston, Texas
One of
our chapter members, Karla Schulman, approached the Board of Directors
regarding the possibility of providing a holiday meal for some of our senior
citizens in a group called "Senior Perspectives" at Devereaux Treatment
Center. The request was small, but the heartfelt effort was as big as our
world. Ms. Schulman wanted to surprise this group with a dinner they might
not otherwise be able to have. The group is focused on helping senior
citizens deal with aging, loss of spouse, illness, etc. Due to the
confidentiality of the group, Karla could not take pictures or accept
assistance by outsiders. However, Karla provided us with a summary of events
that day:
"All the seniors were grateful for the nice gesture and several came up to me personally to express their gratitude. I handed out and read one my favorite Thanksgiving messages called "Count Your Blessings". I printed it on special paper and one senior said she plans to frame it! I have a copy if you'd like one. One of the seniors has been unable to come to the class lately. The staff made an extra special effort to make sure he could be there to enjoy the luncheon and see his friends. He has no family and the senior support group cares about him so much that one of the staff members started crying when she saw him come in. There was enough food to feed the staff also. They were appreciative and expressed their gratitude for this special event. Joe's Bar-B-Q did an excellent job of catering the event and as usual, there was so much food left over that two other families were able to enjoy a nice meal.
Although no pictures were allowed due to confidentiality issues and the HIPPA law, it was a unique experience to witness the seniors' eyes light up when they saw the layout of the food. It was a joy to serve them."
We spend a lot of time working with our youth (and believe me, it is worth it!), but I personally took satisfaction in the fact that our board responded immediately in support of some of the seniors in our community, and we were able to make their day a little brighter.
Thanks to Karla Schulman for making our donation mean so much to them!

Day

Chapter and Council Happenings
Mike Petricelli
Boeing Aerospace Leadership Chapter
Huntington Beach, California
|
BALC members were an integral part of the 12th Annual Educator Enrichment Day with seven of the 34 workshops instructed by members of the leadership group. Bob Friend, FUNdamentals of Flight, Raul Mendoza, Create Your Own Solar System, Jason Monroy, Enhancing My Class Webpage, Gerry Nissen, Charge Up Your Life, Leonel Serrano, Basics of Rocket Propulsion and Judy Tejwani, Tech Center 2025 and The Best Airplane Company taught teachers with a host of BALC members volunteering their time in and out of the classroom to ensure the program ran smoothly. Boeing in partnership with NuVision Credit Union, Southern California Gas Company, and in cooperation with Cerritos College Foundation hosted the day-long event to over 500 teachers across the southern California area. Teachers from Kindergarten through high school, as well as college students pursuing their teaching credentials, came to learn new ways to introduce, further or rekindle the excitement and knowledge gained through math and science. “The actual project itself is a great visual aid for explaining the solar system, Earth movement, seasons, etc.,” said one grade school teacher from the Long Beach Unified School District regarding Raul Mendoza’s workshop where teachers build a Solaris that physically shows the rotation of the Moon about the Earth as well as the Earth’s rotation about its own axis.
The coordination of this event could not have been possible without the Explore Engineering intern team, Chris Kellstrom, Daryll Eaton and Sarem Yan and its manager Marie Mungaray as well as the enormous support from Rick Stephens, President of Shared Services Group, senior vice president of The Boeing Company and Mahesh Reddy, Director of Boeing Phantom Works.
