What Criteria Would You Use To Pick Your Cabinet If You Were President-Elect Trump? Many City Managers use the following criteria to select department heads: Experience and Expertise: Candidates should have a proven track record and deep understanding of their field to manage department-specific responsibilities effectively. Leadership Skills: The ability to lead a team, make critical decisions, and effectively manage personnel is crucial. Alignment with Organizational Goals: Candidates must understand and align with the city’s goals, vision, and policies as determined by the City Council and City Manager. Educational Background: Formal education, certifications, and training relevant to the position are key factors for selection. Ability to Collaborate with Elected Officials and Stakeholders: Strong communication and interpersonal skills to work effectively with the City Manager, Mayor, City Council, and community members are essential. Do you think President-Elect Trump used similar criteria? What if your mission was to create radical change within the organization? Would you use the same criteria or place a higher premium on loyalty to the leader? What about fearlessness? Passion for change? Thoughts? #ICMA #CityManager #Mayor #CityCouncil #Trump #NLC

Maybe we’ve been thinking about leadership with the wrong metrics.  On a recent episode of Face the Nation, Retired Lieutenant General H.R. McMaster, former National Security Adviser said, “We don’t elect a president based on policies. We shouldn’t. We should elect them for their character, because we don’t know what’s going to come up.” What would business be like if we followed his advice? When hiring, we often jump to a job applicant's experience. General McMaster is asking us to consider who they are. We live in a highly dynamic world. From one day to the next, we’re experiencing dramatic and sweeping changes. New information is widely and broadly disseminated at lightning speed. We need leaders who can operate in this paradigm and help others navigate it, too. Rather than looking at a leader’s past experience, what if we think about how they approach the future? Can a leader adapt and adjust? Are they flexible? Do they have a learning-mindset? A grow-mindset? Are they thoughtful? Are they collaborative? Do they care about the people they serve and support? Are they surrounded by bright, eager, caring people? Do they exhibit empathy and compassion? Is love a core value, and how have they demonstrated the use of love in their leadership? How might hiring (and elections) shift if we embraced General McMaster’s advice? What kind of world might we be able to build together if the strength of someone’s character was consider at least as much as their experience and policies? This switch undoubtedly makes hiring and elections more nuanced, complex, and time-consuming. However, given the state of the world and rate of change we’re experiencing, leadership has never been more important to the stability of our planet and society. We deserve to have leaders who are up to the challenges of today and tomorrow. To find and hire these leaders, we need to invest the necessary time and effort to find out who they are, what we care about, and how they can help us move forward together. #business #leadership #jobs #change #society #hiring #HR
