There are definitely cases of people staying in a position for decades and effecting real change and doing great work, but I would say in general the lure of new challenges and new opportunities will pull the best and brightest out into the daylight every 4-6 years.  Just enough time to get up and running but not become burnt-out.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">jharr</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 21 Dec 2007 00:03:01 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The shelf life of a community worker</title><link>http://www.communityguy.com/1229/the-shelf-life-of-a-community-worker/#comment-1465598</link><description>Thanks Jake...I have a feeling you and I will be talking a lot!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;sean</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Sean  ODriscoll</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 20 Dec 2007 23:51:03 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
