The Port of Savannah is by far the busiest container port in the Southeast and the second most globally connected port in the country. And as the size of international vessels has grown, so has the need to create a port that can capably handle them. The Savannah Harbor Expansion Project (SHEP) is aimed to increase navigation channel capacity, improve vessel safety and boost economic growth. GHD has been supporting the Savannah District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Georgia Ports Authority on SHEP-related projects since 2018. Curious to know more?

The "Rule of 3" is the United States Marine Corps really effective structure to organize. In a nutshell, the rule is this: each Marine has three things to worry about. Marines are divided into teams of four individual Marines (three team members and one team leader). Teams are divided into squads. Each squad is made up of three teams. Three squads make up a platoon. The entire Marine organizational chart is made up this way. What’s more, Marines are encouraged to limit their attention to three tasks—three things to worry about. No more. No less. In the civilian world a lot of organizations have flat structure thinking it keeps the bureaucracy to a minimum. It reality it doesn't allow for close connection between supervisor and employee. How can you get individual attention? Who is looking our for your welfare and morale. How about your task list? How long is it? How much deep thinking can you do to actually get things done? If you only focus on a few things and get 100% accomplishment, what could you get done. Maybe as much as the US Marines! #vistage #ceoleadership #sandiegobusienss
