Connie Rudd: On Daily Learning

Transcript

Transcript

CONNIE RUDD: We all learn as we take steps. I think for a lot of us, even though we’re an over-100-year-old agency, we have a solid mission. We’re committed to that mission. Every single one of us learns daily, and it’s not the same Park Service as it was 40 years ago when I came to it, nor was it 100 years ago. We, as an agency, have to learn and grow and live with our neighbors. We used to be islands. We did. We just managed with inside our boundaries. That was it. If you didn’t like it, too bad. It’s not the way we do things now .

Description

Connie Rudd comments on the continual learning of experience and time; both in individual lives and for the National Park Service as an agency. In conversation with Lu Ann Jones as part of an oral history interview.
