Patrick Warren: Chief Safety and Security Officer at State of NY Metropolitan Transportation Authority
I’ve known Chuck both personally and professionally since 2005. I can think of few others during my 33-year career with the military and Federal Railroad Administration that were as creative, resourceful, organized, and goal focused as Chuck Olsen. He is an amazingly effective team builder, trainer and leader. His work in developing a mentorship program for military units deploying to the Middle East illustrates his multiple talents. In this role he developed a concept plan, built and trained a cadre, then delivered the mentorship program to great effect.
