Those two are James J O'Connell and Gregory P Nachbar.
1. James J O'Connell.......a brief synopsis
- 21 years combined as CEO of two major metro hospitals
- Secretary, Dept of Health & Environment, State of Kansas
- 30 years US Air Force (10 active 20 reserve) retired as a colonel
- Major positions with various professional organizations
- My comments: Individual has a history of being in positions that require decision making, fiscal responsibility and team building. My first choice.
2. Gregory P Nachbar.......a brief synopsis
- Most recently, over 20 years with a major ($300m) corporation. His resumé would indicate a strong background in a senior management position responsible for various functions to include purchasing, HS&E, and meeting financial and operational targets
- My comments: Strong corporate experience with responsibilities in many areas that require the ability to be a decision maker. One does not stay and advance with the company he works for by making wrong decisions.

My primary concern is and has been that there might be a predetermination for Jim Neighbor. See my posts below dated 4/17 (Did I Blow It?) and 4/25 (May 10, 2010 - Mark Your Calendars). Hope I'm wrong on that point.
