Though he didn't start blogging, he did start sending a weekly Friday afternoon email to everyone at County Hall basically saying what he'd been upto generally, what decisions were upcoming, what kinds of things we were going to have to deal with, the big picture really. I know a lot of people moaned about it, saying they didn't have time to read it and that, but I quite liked it. First off it helped remind me who we were, as an organisation, not just about the bit that I dealt with. It also made me realise that budgets were going to be really tight and that things weren't likely to get any better, so perhaps jumping ship was the best thing for my sanity ;) About 6 months before I left my last job, with the local County Council, we had a new Chief Executive start.
