Hello and welcome to my website/blog. I thought it was time to make it easier to chat directly with people.
Sue’s recipe for a great Councillor! Mix together the following ingredients and stir.
ü Passion. Reads the daily news and watches it on TV, but still thinks there is hope for the world, and wants to help make it a better place.
ü Persistence. An ability to be a pest by following up issues and getting things done. Otherwise called ‘nagging’.
ü Communication skills. Loves a chat and can talk to anyone, anywhere anytime (even underwater while snorkeling)! This skill comes in handy for meetings.
ü Toughness. Has a very thick, tough outer coating (skin) which can withstand criticism.
ü Creativity. Can think on ones feet… or even sitting down! Loves to explore new ideas.
ü Intelligence. Can balance a cheque book and use a calculator. Better still, can read and understand a spreadsheet (No, not the one on my bed!), and complex, lengthy reports.
ü Honesty. Knows when one has put foot in mouth and can take foot out again, while retaining balance and composure. Tells it like it is.
ü Humility. Can admit mistakes and change ones mind when new information is discovered! (More people should try this… it doesn’t hurt!)
ü Humour. Last but not least - must have a sense of humour (even if it’s not very good) and the ability to laugh at oneself.
