Mr. Glen Washington is the Network administrator Digital Future Coalition. He was born as the only child and the youngest of all the cousins. While attending school he was really good at mathematics and most of his idle time he liked learning new things from his computer. Through this he developed special interest in computing and that led to him doing a bachelor’s degree in IT. He poses the necessary leadership skills. As my former boss, Glen Washington can be described as critical thinker. As the Network administrator of the IT department he is always able to oversee any problems that may arise and how those problems may be solved, he is always aware of any potential opportunities that may arise and he always takes advantage of such situations. He is also an effective listener. He always gives his juniors a chance to express themselves and he does not discriminate any ideas that are brought up. In addition he is also a good motivator, he always motivate employees to do their best at an individual level and also at the company level. He is also good at handling any emerging conflicts at work; he is a straight to the point person who does not beat around the bush. Lastly, I can describe him as being much disciplined and through this he has also helped the other members of this organization to be disciplined and this has been seen through the achievements of this company (Kerns, 2005). 

As a Network administrator Mr. Glen has the responsibility of maintaining the performance of the network and analyzing and solving any network malfunctioning. He also has the responsibility of establishing the require network specifications in this organization. He has also has the responsibility of establishing a network by checking the performance of the network and also defining the required network policies in this organization (Peterson, & Ferrell, 2005).
