This is a letter written to support Heather Erb in her quest for a second term on the La Plata Electric Association board. I have known her for a number of years now, and I have come to see, understand and appreciate her “modus operandi” very much.
She has the exceptional ability to balance adherence to principle with pragmatic compromise. Her past success, intellectual and emotional intelligence, and sense of “servant leadership” has more than helped her to welcome, and to learn from, the valid ideas of others. Principled leaders may not always tell us all what we exactly want to hear, but we know that they will always stand in relationship with their colleagues and bring to the table an ethical and caring demeanor.
Vote to give Heather a second term on the LPEA board.
