Alright, let’s talk about this Kim Janney model, whatever that is. I ain’t no scholar, ya know, just an old woman, but I’ll tell ya what I think.

First off, when I hear “model,” I think of them pretty girls on TV, showing off clothes. But this Kim Janney, sounds like she’s somethin’ different. Maybe she’s a leader, like a boss lady? Heard she was a mayor or somethin’. Sounds important. So, maybe this “Kim Janney model” is about how to be a good leader, ya know? Like, how to get things done and make folks listen.
- Like, maybe it’s about bein’ tough. You gotta be tough to run a city, I bet. Tough like an old rooster.
- And maybe it’s about bein’ smart too. Can’t just be tough, gotta have some brains in that head of yours. Gotta know how to figure things out, like how to stretch a dollar, or how to get them noisy neighbors to quiet down.
- And maybe it’s about listenin’ to people. Even if you’re the boss, you gotta listen to what folks gotta say. Otherwise, how you gonna know what’s goin’ on?
Now, they also use this word “model” when talking about health stuff. Like, how to stay healthy and all that. So, maybe this Kim Janney, she had some ideas about health too?
Maybe her model is about eatin’ your greens. My mama always said, “Eat your greens, they’re good for ya!” And she was right, bless her soul. Maybe this Kim Janney lady thought the same. Or maybe it was about gettin’ enough sleep. Lord knows, I need my sleep. Can’t function without it. Gotta get them eight hours, or I’m a grumpy old hen.
Or maybe it’s about somethin’ else entirely. Like, how to get along with folks. That’s important too, you know. Can’t be fightin’ all the time. Gotta learn to live together, even if folks are different. Maybe this Kim Janney, she had a way of bringin’ people together, of makin’ peace. That’d be a good model to follow, wouldn’t it?
Then there’s this other thing they call “behavior.” Like, how people act, ya know? Maybe this Kim Janney model is about understandin’ why folks do what they do. Like, why some folks are always grumpy, and why some folks are always happy-go-lucky. And maybe it’s about changin’ behavior too. Like, gettin’ folks to stop smokin’ or to start exercisin’. That’d be a good thing, wouldn’t it? Healthy body, healthy mind, that’s what they say.

I heard them smart folks talkin’ about “economic models” once. Sounded complicated. But from what I could gather, it’s all about money. How to make it, how to spend it, how to save it. Maybe this Kim Janney had some ideas about that too? Maybe she knew how to make a city run smooth, how to keep the money flowin’. That’d be important, I reckon. Nobody wants a broke city.
And sometimes they talk about “communication” bein’ important. You know, talkin’ to each other, understandin’ each other. Maybe this Kim Janney model is about how to talk to folks from different places, folks with different ways of doin’ things. That’s important, especially in a big city, where you got all kinds of people. Gotta learn to get along, gotta learn to understand each other, gotta learn to communicate.
So, what is this Kim Janney model really about? Well, I ain’t no expert, but I reckon it could be about a whole bunch of things. It could be about leadership, about health, about behavior, about money, or about communication. Or maybe it’s about all of them things put together. Whatever it is, sounds like this Kim Janney was a smart lady, a strong lady, a lady who knew how to get things done. And that’s a good model to follow, in my book.
You know, it’s like when you’re plantin’ a garden. You gotta have a plan, you gotta work hard, and you gotta be patient. And you gotta adapt too, ‘cause sometimes the weather don’t cooperate, or the bugs get to your plants. Maybe this Kim Janney model is like that. It’s about havin’ a plan, workin’ hard, bein’ patient, and adaptin’ to whatever comes your way. That’s how you get things done, whether you’re plantin’ a garden or runnin’ a city.
But in the end, I reckon it all boils down to this: doin’ what’s right, treatin’ people fair, and workin’ hard to make things better. That’s a model I can understand, and that’s a model I can get behind.
