Focused on ego and what he can achieve. Takes new staff vehicles for him self, rather than the new position the vehicle was purchased for. Designs fire station on a bar napkin with minimal (if any) input from members who will live there. Regularly not present, regularly not presentable as a Fire Chief, regularly commenting on female community members social media like a teenager looking for attention. Has a reputation for retaliation and degrading others during internal and external meetings. Doesn’t support projects/progression unless it’s his idea or pet project. Leadership/management style seems to be fire, ready, aim at best. Multiple members have left during his tenure, some with over 10 years to start over at other as recruits.
Will give credit that much needed replacement station has been built (from the bar napkin) and a 5th suppression company brought in service. For this, he gets the second star.
