Bill > SR156

This resolution urges all state boards and commissions to conduct annual performance reviews for their Executive Directors or equivalent positions that are exempt from civil service law. The resolution recognizes that these boards and commissions are established to address community challenges and act as state liaisons, with their Executive Directors responsible for executing directives, managing operations, and making progress towards state and community goals. The performance reviews are intended to evaluate how well these executive leaders are meeting the specific statutory mandates and objectives of their respective boards or commissions. Additionally, the resolution calls for state department heads to distribute copies of this resolution to the chairs of boards and commissions that have such exempt executive positions, thereby encouraging widespread adoption of this recommended annual performance evaluation practice. The underlying context is to promote accountability and effectiveness in the leadership of state boards and commissions by implementing a systematic review process.
