1. I am starting to think about who will take Joanna Lake's position next month.
2. She is retiring after 30 years of service!
3. A lot of the people on her team are very hardworking,
4. so I would like to promote one of them.
5. Does anyone, in particular, come to mind?
6. Hmm.. They're all great,
7. but I've personally worked with Gwenn Rhodes,
8. and I was very impressed with her professionalism and work ethic.
9. Yeah, she is great!
10. She has only been with the company for two years,
11. I was hoping to promote someone who has been here a little bit longer.
12. I understand,
13. but sometimes it is about how hard you work,
14. not how long you've worked.
15. Let's bring her in for an informal conversation and gauge her interest.
