hired four administrative assistants since I've worked here. For me some of my biggest challenges. I
think that on the HR side, the biggest thing that I have had to deal with is our agency does reviews
based on merit. In here, it is a merit based policy. We are a CalPERS agency, and CalPERS frowns upon
stuff that is not fair across the board. I have been trying to, we had a previous person here retire, I
took over in the middle of the process, to work with CalPERS to develop a merit policy that they will
accept. It has been a challenge to get CalPERs to always give the same answer. We have been working
on this since August to get merit based policies that they accept. Our executive director doesn't what
to have responsibility. As part of that, as my review, I recommended to the executive director that
separate our COLA based increases with our merit based. Then writing a staff report and trying to
decipher what is aloud through Pepra and what is allowed through classic.

The biggest challenge I have had for supervisory was having to let go of two assistants who didn't pass
supervisory. Having to walk them out and going through all of that, and trying to help them to improve
their behavior and their work quality. I had one administrative assistant to really help her to improve
the quality of the work. We were able to keep her. I tried to go through the same steps as trying to
mentor the, and those two have been my biggest challenges.

compensation study, recommendations for salary increases, title changes, promotions, we dealt with
potential demotions. We put everything together and presented tto the committee, it was then
presented in January to our whole board. I reviewed the compensation study, reviewed with the
executive director of projects. Our deputy director was not present. I presented to the board as the
HR person, and the consultant presented the findings of the study. I did all of the implementation
