Chief David Rhodes remarks shed light on a critical issue plaguing many organizations: the tendency for leaders to surround themselves with like-minded individuals, thus stifling diversity of thought and innovation. This failure to embrace diversity in leadership results in the marginalization of passionate and innovative individuals, who are often overlooked or even cast aside. As a consequence, many organizations find themselves surviving only through the contributions of these marginalized individuals, whose commitment and creativity sustain them despite the systemic obstacles they face.

At a fire about a month ago, we lost. We were unable to save a victim and we failed. I was not so pleased and it showed. Had people tell me to calm down. I did not and it turns out the family noticed and it meant a lot to them that I cared. They brought by a gift basket to the firehouse to say thank you. It's an honor to be given the responsibility to protect the lives of those in need. I'll never forget that or just move on if we fail.

1) FDNY Chief of Operations John Esposito explains why firefighters should seek out busy houses & companies if they want to be good firefighters. More sets & reps make you better. (Plus, most likely you're surrounded by good Officers & firefighters.)

When we tell you unregulated, illegal lithium-ion batteries are a hazard, WE MEAN IT. FDNY Fire Inspectors continue to check e-bike & e-scooter shops to ensure compliance, but many of devices & batteries are in private homes. They’re ticking time bombs, just watch our new PSA.

Our crews responded to an elderly patient that had fallen from a ladder while hanging his Christmas lights. The patient was transported to the hospital, and the crew decided to finish hanging the last 25’ of lights for the family… We’re spreading the holiday spirit, keep it going everyone!🎄🎁🎅
