People on the Move

From oil and gas to tech, from Congress to local government, and more

“Bad Bunny Braddock” checking in with People on the Move.

After Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick called me that during the first half of the Super Bowl on Sunday, you know we’re going to have some fun with it on the latest edition of the Quorum Report Radio podcast, which will drop on your favorite podcast app this evening. The links to subscribe are on the QR homepage. Check it out.

It was good to see so many of you in Houston at Mayor John Whitmire’s State of the City Address. As reported in QR yesterday, the former Dean of the Texas Senate ruffled some feathers at two other city halls around the state and took direct aim at some of his critics in Houston media and the Harris County Democratic Party. In a lot of ways, it sounded more like a reelection kickoff speech than a generic update about how city operations are going. Check out the story in The Buzz and listen to the highlights during the podcast tonight, if you’re interested.

Meantime, there’s career news to tell you about this week. People one the Move isn’t possible without your help – something you’ve all been doing for nearly a decade. It started back in 2017 when there was a wave of retirements in the lobby and many of you wanted to know more about that. POTM was born in response to reader demand and remains powered by reader input. Thank y’all so much for sending career news each week to ksbraddock@gmail.com and using POTM in the subject line. That helps me keep it all straight.

Here’s the latest edition.
