3. Policy Development & Strategy

Rating for this category is a scale of 1 (worse) to 5 (best).   SCORE:  2

COMMENTS:  Policies/Strategies enacted last year are not being followed consistently – ex. weekly updates, and communication to Board on emerging issues. Lack of designated/acting CEO in the absence of the CEO is not best practice, particularly for a board meeting (July 2015).

Rating for this category on a scale of 1 (worse) to 5 (best).   SCORE:  2

COMMENTS:  As I stated in last year’s evaluation, Board communication must be consistent and proactive. I learned of the tape-recording incident by viewing it on the evening news.

6. Working Relationship with Individual PSTA Board Members

Rating for this category is a scale of 1 (worse) to 5 (best).   SCORE:   2

COMMENTS:  None

8. Human Resource Management

Rating for this category on a scale of 1 (worse) to 5 (best).   SCORE:   2
