At the VA, we are kind of in this position where we are between real chiefs. We have had acting chiefs, or people working in the chief position though not officially named. The way I have seen it, there seems to be two people currently in contention for the spot. The reality is, I didn't think either of these two people would have wanted such a thing; one has a few very little ones at home to help tend to, and the other seems to get way too stressed out over the little things.
Regardless, the VA now has a new surgery chief. Which means the decision process has only just begun - even if it already had several months before with the interim chief. Each of our two candidates serves as an ophthalmology chief for a period of time. Then it seems a winner will be chosen by the surgery chief. It almost seems like a season of Survivor.
I haven't been asked to be on a tribal council yet, but I'm sure it's coming. Look for us on the next VATV Morning Edition.
