Tieman “Skipper” Dippel created two enduring entities helping shape the future of Texas; it’s in Skipper’s honor that we carry on the tradition, remaining a must-read at the Capitol
Tomorrow, the Texas
Lyceum will be celebrating its 45th birthday by honoring its
visionary founder, Tieman “Skipper Dippel with their Stewardship
of Texas Values Award.
Most Folks at the
Capitol have probably never heard of Skipper Dippel. His bio probably simply
reads “retired CEO of Brenham National Bank.”
But because of
the vision of this small-town Texas banker, the Texas Lyceum has not only endured
but has grown to be the premier organization discovering and recruiting future
leadership of Texas. The lyceum has evolved into a robust educational
opportunity for its membership but perhaps most importantly, it has created a
multi-generational network that has in many ways shape
the state.
And it’s an even
odds bet that most of the Lyceum membership probably does not realize that
without Skipper Dippel there would never have been a Quorum Report.
Folks nearly universally think that I founded QR. But that’s not what happened.
Let me tell you
the story.

Power players, PAC news, leadership transitions and more
While the
nation reels and concerns grow about potential violence in the aftermath of the killing of top ally of President Donald Trump, Gov. Greg Abbott
and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick continue to go back and forth and THC and chatter
about a third special session is lingering out there but starting to calm down.
On the last
point, let’s hope it stays that way.
Meantime, there
were some significant career moves in the Texas Capitol community
to tell you about and this is where we do it. Most Fridays, People on the Move
features the career news of those who really make it all happen in and around
the big pink building. You can always share your news – or that of a friend –
by sending it to ksbraddock@gmail.com.
If you do, please use “POTM” in the subject line. There’s no penalty for not doing
it that way, but I might lose track of it if you don’t.
Please and
thank you.
Here’s the
latest edition.

"I hate this news and won't pretend otherwise. Kyleen Wright was a warrior. She was a dear friend, an honest broker at the Texas Capitol, and a classy fighter for her cause - a contrast to those who came to the process later. The loss leaves a void, and she'll be sorely missed" - SB
