What are the strengths of your organization?

What are the strengths of your organization?
The strengths of the Intergovernmental Relations department in the Town of Gilbert is their commitment to public service, to the town of Gilbert. They take pride in the accomplishments and the change, forming Gilbert to be a well rounded and respected town here in Arizona. The team work and the commitment to get the job done. One analogy I heard a lot was, Gilbert is the little brother that is finally growing up. I liked hearing this, because it was true in so many ways.

If you were in charge of a similar organization, are there any things you would do differently?

I do not think there is much to change but follow the consistent flow of placing good leadership to lead the departments. Ensuring everyone wants to do a good job and have the same commitment to public service and want to accomplish the goals we set out accomplish together as a team. The “Team Gilbert” mentality is an appropriate one, it drives the employees to do a good job and ensures the employees that they are all team members. That we are all trying to accomplish the same goal for the betterment of the Town of Gilbert.

  2. I agree with your assessment of continuing the leadership that you saw present within the organization. It is up to leaders to make sure that the employees under them work hard and are motivated to follow the mission of the organization. I think that when the whole team is on the same page and working towards the same mission you will get the best results. This starts with the leaders. I think the way you describe the organization it will continue to have success.
