Home

Merit Board of Appeals October 15, 2014 Ms. Toriano replied, "Expand it." Ms. Rabago agreed. Mr. Nahuina added that that the "training" could go into "planning" or maybe "problem -solving." Ms. Rabago said what made her think about that was "develop employees" and "leadership" is a "develop employee"—so, that's why it would be "training." Either one would be okay. But rather than making it a whole new bullet, she'd like to expand on what's already there. We have the four (Financial Management; Planning, Prioritizing and Organizing; Problem Solving/Decision- Making; and Leadership) and liked her three goals (Goals #1, #2, and #3). This gives us the goals for 2014-2015. You could expand the "Leadership" or "Planning", and this document would serve us well going forward. Mr. Nahuina thought it was a great idea to add the verbiage in. Ms. Ota stated that she doesn't see "customer service" as being a separate category. Placing it under "Leadership"—"Maintains a good method of sharing information with superiors and subordinates." Ms. Rabago added, "and members of the public." Chair Kuewa questioned whether it's worth changing the verbiage under "Leadership" to include "improving customer service." Ms. Toriano suggested that they could expand it, if the Board doesn't mind, and that she would work with the Chair. Motion: Ms. Rabago moved that Ms. Toriano work with the Chair to expand the verbiage in the "Performance Category" under "Leadership" of the evaluation form. Seconded by Ms. Ota. The voice vote, was as follows: AYES: Board Members Nahuina, Otake, Rabago, and Chair Kuewa —4. NOES: None. ABSENT: None. EXCUSED: None. Chair Kuewa confirmed that both he and Ms. Toriano will review the form and have a proposal for the next meeting. Ms. Toriano asked that under "Financial Management" that the Board do not hold anything against their department due to the disasters (legal expenses, et cetera). Page 13
