[Lnc-business] Impartiality of Chair

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

I make my own pledge here to you all.  I pledge to do my best to uphold the
decision of this body out of respect for each of you and the spirit of
compromise.  I further pledge that no matter what happens I will discharge
my duties to the best of my abilities to make it a success and will not use
my position to sabotage this committee.  So let it be written.  So let it
be done.

communication skills in both personal and electronic arenas.  If anyone
found anything offensive or overly off-putting (or some other social faux
pas) in an actual email, please contact me privately and let me know.  *
