It was a lovely evening in LaCrosse, Wisconsin, as the state broadcast association held its Hall of Fame banquet, honoring individuals for lifetime service to the industry. It was a genuine thrill to be inducted into this group of professionals. Among the past honorees were a professor who first got me interested in the broadcast side of journalism, and the man who hired me as a reporter and helped promote me to management. After a video history of the inductee is shown, each is asked to say a few words. I was the last person in the group, so I made certain to keep my comments brief. I decided to read a short passage from "WORK HAPPY: WHAT GREAT BOSSES KNOW" that seemed most appropriate for the event. A friend captured it on cell phone video: http://youtu.be/0oCpnK1n5P8
