With over 5,000 articles written today on the web about Mr. Spitzer’s rapid fall from as the power the governor of New York, the media frenzy isdeafening. But I believe that his recent troubles should not dictate the end to his public life. We need to remember that most of our careers are not linear. We all screw up sometimes and bad things happen. It is fine to grieve failures, even wallow in it for awhile, but Spitzer did the wise thing- he made the decision to quickly resign so he could move on with his life and career. His articulation that he will continue on as a public servant in some way is what the bounce process is all about. He now can get on a new path so he can seek another success opportunity in his life.
