Congratulations Cutler Bay and new Town Manager Ralph Casals

Cutler Bay hires new Town Manager - Cutler Bay - MiamiHerald.com
After 62 applicants and a (call it) a 9 month search, Cutler Bay choose to remain with developing its home town talent and hire from within when the town council voted 5 - 0 to remove "interim" from the title of Town Manager Ralph Casals.  As reported in the Miami Herald: Before he was tapped to fill in for Alexander, Casals had served as the town’s public works director since 2006.

Ralph Casals

Congratulations new manager, town council and town residents.  Unless your intent is to clean house, nothing spoils chemistry and team morale more than telling its staff that there is insufficient talent to promote from within.

Continue to move forward Cutler Bay!

A quality quote on the practice of hiring from within an organization:  “I am convinced that nothing we do is more important than hiring and developing people. At the end of the day you bet on people, not on strategies.”
