What a great evening at #NLGJA2019’s annual fundraiser. The direct eye contact with DC Chapter President @StevenOverly is a bonus...
Congratulations to #NLGJA2019 Hall of Fame inductee @karaswisher for your journalism career highlights and delivering a great speech with a baby strapped to you - punctuated by a pacifier in your hand.
Always great to see #NLGJA2019 President Sharif Durhams, who just wrapped up a great week at #Poynter inspiring the bejeezus out of 30 POC digital journalism leaders. (Follow them here twitter.com/shefalikulkarn…)

This week The @washingtonpost kicked off a new section called Road to Recovery, spearheaded by the very talented @renaemerle washingtonpost.com/road-to-recove…
Stories from around the newsroom will to focus on what recovery looks like, which might not mean a return to 'normal', rather, a *new* normal.
Like this @RickMaese story about golf - a naturally socially-distant sport that's booming during the pandemic. washingtonpost.com/road-to-recove…

Biden: “We’re going to do more than praise our essential workers. We’re going to pay them.” #DNC2020 #USElection2020 kicks off - get ready to hear: I’m the candidate for essential workers
Tens of thousands of immigrant laborers have enabled one Florida construction boom after another. Asked to work through the pandemic, they’re now among the hardest-hit communities in the hard-hit state. washingtonpost.com/world/2020/07/… (by @ksieff)
#AAJA2020 Best thing I learned from good managers: Practicing empathy - learning what their team's goals are & also what makes them miserable. Good managers want their team to succeed, not just themselves. They're not the loudest voice in the room. - @sclary
#AAJA2020 Bad managers hoard talent. An honest, good manager wants a person on their team to succeed. I've learned so much from bad managers. - @marcelolprince
#AAJA20 The best managers I've had have been coaches. They give you the tools and the skills you need to get the job done. You let folks flourish - you give them the freedom to be who they are, rather than shape them yourself. - @juliachanb
