Inside and Outside Roles

Chapter 1.30 in Stories to Tell Your Students, 2011, pp 62-64 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Bob was recently hired as the fire chief of a medium-sized combination fire department. The department has forty-eight full-time paid personnel and thirty-six members serving in a volunteer capacity. Prior to assuming this new position, Bob was the deputy chief at a large, well-respected fire department that had received significant national recognition as a progressive department that had positioned itself to continue to operate in an effective, efficient, and safe manner, despite the many unprecedented challenges facing contemporary fire departments. Bob was in large part the architect of many of the remarkable accomplishments of this fire department, and these accomplishments weighed heavily in the decision to offer him the position of fire chief in his present department.
