RACESBUL.229 DATE: July 6, 1992
SUBJECT: MGT: Radio Officer Liaison
A major factor in the decline of a radio response unit (whatever
its name or however it is attached) is the Radio Officer who does
not REGULARLY stop by the government office to which he or she
is attached.
Such on-going visits are for a four-fold purpose:
1. To leave an activity summary. This could be a quick verbal or
a concise write-up, depending on the person who is to receive it.
2. To provide RACES bulletins on topics of interest or as
applicable.
3. To just ask, "How can I help out?"
4. To gather information that will be of interest to the radio
response unit members; in other words, for broadcast on the net,
in a newsletter, etc.
The busier the administrator, the greater the potential need for
a Radio Officer capable of providing (by his/her own ability or
those of others) clerical, administrative, management, computer
graphics, data base or word processing talent, editorial ability;
all skills other than just those of the emergency radio operator.
Observing these needs comes from frequent visits with a "how can
I help" attitude in mind at all times. Few busy people will turn
away skilled and competent help, quietly offered and efficiently
implemented with management skills.
Certainly, doing this can take time and effort, but the rewards
to the Radio Officer, as well as the agency, are immeasurable. It
is a real win-win situation when carefully studied and
implemented.
