Carla Reece faithfully fulfilled the role of City Clerk for the City of Tempe during challenging periods marked by a number of contentious issues. Throughout her tenure, she consistently demonstrated respect for residents, city staff, and other stakeholders. Her conduct exuded dignity, and she maintained an open ear to all ideas presented. With over two decades of work across diverse services including public safety, municipal clerk, fire districts, human resources, etc. Carla has also dedicated herself to numerous community volunteer endeavors, consistently offering support wherever it was needed. Her integrity, grit, dedication and compassion are her hallmarks and a key factor in her career success in the public service sector.
This Public Service Recognition Week, I'm reflecting on the profound impact of clear communication in our collective efforts to build stronger, more cohesive power of clear communication in building stronger communities. Public servants are united in a common mission regardless of our level (quasi-governmental, local, county, state, or federal). We work together on all levels, on the same team, towards shared goals. We listen actively and speak plainly by ditching jargon for clear, concise language everyone can understand. We ask open-ended questions to encourage transparent and specific responses instead of making assumptions. We give everyone a voice, fostering open dialogue where everyone feels heard and valued. We follow up to deepen connections with one-on-one conversations in the community and with our colleagues. We focus on common ground, seeking solutions that benefit everyone, not just a select few. We listen with empathy and understand people's needs and concerns to build trust and stronger relationships. This week, we're celebrating public servants, and I am genuinely thankful to be one and in good company with so many! #PublicServiceRecognitionWeek #Communication #Community #Thankful2BAPublicServant
Gabriela Carney helps me a lot and has a heart of service as well as the hardest work ethic ever. She is infectious to be around and I appreciate her comradarie at work during lunch as well, for we play Spades.
Mr. Hunt is an amazing supervisor and goes above and beyond to train everyone on the team to the extent that they feel comfortable in their job duties and understand why they do what they do. He is always upbeat and willing to help at any time. One of the best supervisors of my 24 Government year career.
When I turn on my tap and clean, drinkable water comes out, I consider it nothing short of a miracle. I know it's not magic, but the work of people in the public sector that allows this to happen. Thank you for everything that you do.
