Thread Name: BS: Speech for Retirement Dinner
Subject: RE: BS: Speech for Retirement Dinner
At a friend's retirement from our union cadre, I told a story which embodied her humor and her characteristics of leadership and how she once used them off the job to gently get a kid to achieve what he wanted.
After my little story, several people came up to me to ask me to tell the same sort of story about them. My response was that I had to see them do something in front of me which would make a good story. I believe that's the sort of thing to look for.
Keep it under 5 minutes.
