I believe that my background managing large organizations gives me the experience to make a valuable contribution to the City Finance Committee. I have led organizations up to $3 billion in sales and over 17,000 employees. I have been in Finance leadership positions in organizations ranging from small stark ups to over $8 billion in sales and 35,000 employees. Effective leadership and counsel of and to large organizations, be they commercial enterprises, federal, state or city governments, all require consistent discipline involving strict accountability and adherence to budgets and schedules. Our City is in a fortunate position to have significant revenue sources. But, with our heavy debt burden and future pension obligations we must be even more diligent and imaginative in ways to reduce costs and increase revenues.
