Facing Leadership Challenges: Arlington Cemetery Would you take a leadership position at a high visibility organization that has seen its problems in the headlines of every major newspaper? What would it take to convince you to accept a position where the world is watching and looking for fast improvements to long standing problems? Would being called to testify before Congress cause you stress? Could your belief in the mission of the organization overcome the risk of taking such a job? Do you have the leadership skills and intestinal fortitude for such a job? Ms. Kathryn A. Condon took such a job in June 2010 as the Executive Director, Army National Military Cemeteries. She is responsible for both long-term planning and day-to-day administration and operations of Arlington National Cemetery and the U.S. Soldiers' and Airmen's Home National Cemetery.
