BACKGROUND:
The Human Relations Commission consists of not less than 15 members
and not more than 20 members nominated at-large by the Internal
Operations Committee. The terms of office of five members expired
November 4, 1994 . In addition, there are six vacant seats (#1, #2,
#5, #8, #9 & #5) which need to be filled.
Our Committee and the Commission have recruited applicants for the
Human Relations Commission. We received 34 applications for the
Commission. On December 5, 1994, our Committee interviewed the 12
applicants who appeared for their interview. We have selected the
six individuals named above in an effort to maintain a geographic
balance on the Commission and also insure that race, gender,
ethnicity and other factors and represented on the Commission.
Approval of these recommendations will result in the following
geographic distribution of members on the Commission:
SUPERVISORIAL DISTRICT NUMBER OF SEATS
I 4
II 4
III 3
IV 3
V 6
We have also recommended the creation of a second Youth Advisor
position for John Greene, anticipating that once John turns 18, he
can be considered for a regular seat on the Commission. We are
also recommending the reappointment of the five individuals whose
terms are expiring. Four of these individuals have served less
than one full term and deserve an opportunity to continue to serve.

6. Review of Implementation and Results
All my managerial positions require developing and managing
processes for monitoring, followup and evaluation. Asa
result of my expertise in conducting reviews (operational,
administrative and personnel) , I have developed the necessary
skills for preparing reports and conducting implementation of
recommendations.
I have led numerous reviews of various organizations and
made many recommendations to higher level SSA officials
including the Commissioner of SSA. I also was given the
7
responsibility to track those accepted and report on
results.
My review included high level components such as SSA
Program Policy Staffs, Data Operations Centers, all
Program Service Centers, the Office of Disability
Operations and Office of International Operations.
I served on SSA Committee to review the Office of
Disability Operations and the resultant report was made
available to various congressional committees to
strengthen the disability process.
I wrote an operational work process manual which was used
to implement and monitor the major organizational design
of SSA Program Service Centers.
I was assigned the responsibility of continual monitoring
of experimental processes and preparation of reports
concerning accomplishments for the SSA.
I prepared a recommendation for transferring disability
workloads to other field offices to improve productivity
and processing time. The resultant activities caused
other transfers and provided better service to almost 6
million disabled beneficiaries.
My current duties require continual monitoring of all
phases of operations and implementation of complex
technical and administrative processes.
Conducted operational experiments to determine the
feasibility of SSA processing work without the benefit
of folders or documents in folders. The successful
experiment resulted in SSA's implementation of folderless
processing of work.
Headed up workgroup to recommend SSA Strategic Plans for
the future. A majority of the recommendations have been
implemented including the 800 number system.
Set goals and objectives, evaluate and develop
alternative plans for program improvements. The results
are seen in bi-annual and annual reports ' on
accomplishments of SES plans.
