How often is the General Manager evaluated?

The General Manager is evaluated annually to ensure an effective review process that aligns with the established goals and objectives of the organization. This annual evaluation allows for a comprehensive assessment of the General Manager's performance over a significant period, promoting accountability and facilitating strategic planning for the upcoming year. An annual review provides enough time to gather relevant performance data, assess progress toward achieving the utility's operational and fiscal goals, and allows for meaningful feedback and development planning.

More frequent evaluations, such as quarterly or weekly, might not provide enough time for substantial performance changes to occur and could lead to an overemphasis on short-term metrics rather than long-term strategic outcomes. Similarly, biannual evaluations may lack the depth and detail that an annual review can provide, missing critical insights that can be gained from a full year's worth of data and experiences.
