Who's Your Command Financial NCO?
Speaking of financial education, Fort Carson has done something pretty cool.
Each battalion-sized element on the post has appointed a Command Financial NCO. This would be a financially stable, secure, and savvy soldier who's job it would be to oversee the following:
Conducts financial evaluations
Provides budget counseling and advise to soldiers and family members
Screen and counsel all AER referrals
Refer soldiers/family members to appropriate resources or agencies
Present financial readiness and consumer training as part of the command program
Disseminate financial and consumer information within the command
Schedule unit financial management training with Financial Readiness Program
Provide emergency food locker referrals to soldiers and family members
Attend battalion pre-deployment briefing to describe available resources of family members
Attend Army Family Team Building (AFTB) sessions as an available resource
Provide desk-side briefing to new unit leaders to explain the program
Provide financial and consumer benefits to all newly assigned personnel
Assist unit commanders in emphasizing consumer prevention/education rather than crisis management.
Sounds like a good program. I'd like to see some required training or certification or curriculum for the appointed NCOs in place. It would be real easy to mistakenly appoint someone giving bad advice, or put in one of the First Command Borg.
But that is a problem, I think, easily remedied. It wouldn't be difficult to do a web-based program.
Any thoughts on what such a training program would look like, in outline?

You Can't Do It All.
Learning to delegate, there is not a single management skill more critical to your personal and professional success as an entrepreneur than learning to delegate, but delegating successfully is much more than simply handing out assignments.

Asbestos is a naturally occurring silicate mineral with long, thin fibrous crystals. The word asbestos is derived from a Greek adjective meaning inextinguishable. The Greeks termed asbestos the miracle mineral because of its soft and pliant properties, as well as its ability to withstand heat.Asbestos is known to have toxicity. The inhalation of toxic asbestos fibers can cause serious illnesses, including malignant mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. Since the mid 1980s, many uses of asbestos have been banned in several countries.Asbestos became increasingly popular among manufacturers and builders in the late 19th century because of its resistance to heat, electricity and chemical damage, its sound absorption and tensile strength. When asbestos is used for its resistance to fire or heat, the fibers are often mixed with cement or woven into fabric or mats. Asbestos was used in some products for its heat resistance, and in the past was used on electric oven and hotplate wiring for its electrical insulation at elevated temperature, and in buildings for its flame-retardant and insulating properties, tensile strength flexibility, and resistance to chemicals.
