Simply said, Dennis meets these expectations on a daily basis. As an employee who has <br />the privilege of working closely with Dennis, I see his commitment and allegiance to not <br />only the mayor and council, but all city employees, on a daily basis. <br /> <br />In what areas does the CM's performance exceed your expectations? <br /> <br />Dennis is exceptional with regard to the respect he continually shows to those who are <br />disrespectful to him, often in public. He remains courteous and calm in the face of <br />uncomfortable confrontations. I know there have been community meetings, public <br />forums, etc. where angry citizens have confronted him and he remains composed and <br />willing to listen to all problems and concerns expressed by Eugene's citizens. <br /> <br />Despite the highly charged and changing political climate, Dennis remains true to his <br />professionalism and integrity. He tackles problems head-on and answers questions <br />straightforward and honestly even when the answers may be unpopular. <br /> <br />I think a few examples of Dennis' clear leadership are the city's financial stability, a <br />strong executive manager team, and the new, steady stream of Eugene's positive media <br />exposure. <br /> <br />What steps can be taken to improve the CM's performance? <br /> <br />I don't think I have any comments on how to improve Dennis' performance. <br /> <br />In conclusion, I am blessed to work with someone as forthright and honest as Dennis (not <br />to mention his good sense of humor as well) and the citizens of Eugene should be pleased <br />to have such a wise and honest man at the helm of our city's leadership. <br /> <br /> City Manager Evaluation 13 July 2005 <br /> Employee Comments <br /> <br /> <br />
