In this episode of Leader Up, host David Howey sits down with Frank Wenzel, Director of the Army Management Staff College (AMSC), to discuss the evolution of leadership development within the Army Civilian Corps. Mr. Wenzel reflects on his two years in the role, sharing insights on the strategic shifts AMSC has undertaken to better meet the Army’s current and future needs. The conversation delves into key topics like policy changes, the importance of investing in leader development, and the critical role AMSC plays in shaping supervisors and leaders within the Army civilian workforce.
One significant change discussed is the recent elimination of constructive credit for civilian supervisors who previously attended certain military education courses. Mr. Wenzel explains how this change ensures that civilian supervisors now complete the Civilian Education System (CES) courses designed specifically for their unique roles, bringing more consistency and value to leadership development across the Army Civilian Corps.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
