We have frequently commented on this blog about the savvy and pro-active use of social media by the U.S. Coast Guard to communicate with the public. Admiral Allen deserves quite a bit of credit personally for leading his agency into the Government 2.0 realm. It takes a good communications team to execute such a strategy, but it also takes a forward-thinking leader to provide support to staff in such efforts. Admiral Allen, who has his own blog and Facebook pages, clearly provides personal leadership on this issue.
That’s why we are delighted to be among the sites he lists as part if his regular reading routine. It probably goes without saying that we regularly read his, and the the other Coast Guard blogs, as well.
