In other words we're a bit shy on female readers of GTDtimes. If you're female and you read this publication perhaps you can suggest some improvements that would make us more interesting to the fairer sex? Editor @ Pat,

The ratio of women to men entering the contest was actually pretty close to the same as it was in the winners. In other words we’re a bit shy on female readers of GTDtimes. If you’re female and you read this publication perhaps you can suggest some improvements that would make us more interesting to the fairer sex?

Jeff: I hope you will write a summary of what it is like and how it helps you at your facility. I have people who work at mental health facilities seeing me for consultation, not as an organizational consultant, but for discussion of tough clinical issues. More often than I would have expected, organizational issues end up being center stage. I hear over and over about the difficulty finding time to get state-ordered paper work completed, time to see the high case load now expected of mental health professionals at community based agencies, time to "get it all done" without working late into every evening. I would love to hear anything you learn that might be particularly useful to someone working in a service agency as you do. Specifically, it would be helpful to learn how to handle everything when human life and welfare is precarious, when you are managing the daily needs of mentally disadvantaged people at the same time as meeting the bureaucratic requirements of the agency. Please fill us in on the experience. Lynn I am so glad that Jeff won! Jeff: I hope you will write a summary of what it is like and how it helps you at your facility.
