Integrity is a critical characteristics of effective leaders. The courage and integrity demonstrated by Bowers, Raffensberger and Sterling probably saved our democracy. @washingtonpost https://t.co/XZPfZxidww
Alicia Trost @AliciaTrost, BART Chief Communications Officer, just gave a powerful presentation on leadership to a group of up-and-coming transportation leaders. Wow! Great stuff!
Gen. Gustave Perna, head of Operation Warp Speed, just showed more LEADERSHIP and integrity in 30 seconds than we have seen in quite a while, saying, “I want to take personal responsibility for the miscommunication.” https://t.co/mbJZ8c66U2
Dr. Waheed Uddin, an outstanding transportation and environmental policy researcher passed away on Nov 18. He will be sorely missed by his colleagues and students the world over. @drwaheeduddin
@PeteButtigieg Really looking forward to working with Pete Buttigieg as Sec of USDOT. Under his leadership we will see revitalized airlines, public transportation, and autonomous vehicles.
Some of the world’s best scientists call Colorado home. This month, I’m especially proud of the researchers at @ColoradoStateU working to develop a coronavirus vaccine. We’re all rooting for you.

Our crews are working hard to keep our riders and staff safe and healthy! They've been working since early this morning to carefully disinfect high-contact areas on our trains, in addition to regular cleaning. We're also encouraging healthy habits to keep everyone safe.
Instead of focusing on those accused of the shooting that occurred this week at STEM School Highlands Ranch, let’s focus on the heroes - and Kendrick Castillo was exactly that. His actions that day saved many lives and we should all be thankful for his bravery.
"Coloradans should ask themselves what they can do today to honor Kendrick Castillo, and then do it tomorrow, next month, next year, and the year after that, until the distant day when we can say with confidence our schools are safe." #EnoughIsEnough

Perhaps the best outcome of the midterms was the increase in the number of women in Congress. Why? They are often more ethical and effective leaders. Pls read my latest with @james_piltch about why America needs 2018 to be just the start of the Pink Wave. https://t.co/4zw1gn8su9
Great leaders make sure that it is not just about them: "A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves."

Gen. @MarkHertling: "You combine not only Stanley McChrystal but Bill McCraven, Secretary Mattis, John Kelly and you say well a lot of people are saying not only is there a leadership void, but there's also a lack of understanding of the intellectual requirements of the job"
