Imagine a new COO who was once a Manging Deputy Director for a city like New York. He/she has spent 35 years working in every department of City government. This person has supervised city departments with thousands of employees. The new COO is: an outstanding communicator, very detailed oriented, good at multi-tasking, makes good hiring decisions, delegates well, and demands excellence from everyone. The new COO has a Masters in Public Administration and is also a Professor at a program in Public Administration in NY. Let's find this person!
It's time to get out of the small town mentality of Camden and imagine new talent, vision, energy, and leadership coming to Camden. There are people out there with this kind of talent looking for a place like Camden to make their mark.
Let's help the State of NJ write the job ad:
"The poorest city in the country, Camden, NJ is seeking an individual with extensive city government experience to be our Chief Operating Officer. The candidate should be an outstanding communicator, be good at multi-tasking, have a passion for the details of municipal government, and have very thick skin. The candidate should be a good listener, be capable of setting realistic goals, have experience with community relations, and should have an extensive background in municipal finance and budgeting."
