Larry Franz - Getting Things Done Whether You’re at the Pentagon, a Union, or a City Bench
Larry Franz has always gotten things done. While working in a factory, he became the local union’s president, used the extra money to pay for college, and negotiated the best CBA his members had ever won. At the Pentagon, one of the toughest bureaucracies in the country, generals relied upon him to navigate through all the egos and red tape and make their plans happen. Now retired, from his bench on 2nd street, Larry is quietly doing the same here in Lewes. Instead of complaining about his rough childhood or being kicked out of the house at 18, Larry learned self-reliance, the power of listening, and the joy and freedom that comes with focusing on what you can or should be doing instead of all the rest.
