look at the candidates as if they were interviewing for the job of CEO
of the US.  What is clear in 2008, more so than in 2004, is that what
we need now is a <I>turnaround specialist</I>.  The hard part about
effecting a turnaround is fear of change.  I remember when I took over
leadership of NASA Ames' Computational Sciences Division.  This was a
high-achieving division that was not in need of major changes. But
still, the upper management of the center hired a coach to help me
through the transition period. The coach stressed fear of change as
the main obstacle I would have to overcome.  I thought he was
exaggerating the problem, but it turns out he was right. Everyone
wants things to get better, but there is a natural tendency to resist
change. To overcome that, a business needs someone who can institute
change.
