A: Because they don't want you to know how bad it really is.

Q: Why will there never be a poll of APS employees, on their morale and confidence in their leadership?

There has been a poll of APD police officers, link.

The majority of respondents reported low morale and dissatisfaction with their chief.

Subordinate evaluation?
I don't need no stinkin'
subordinate evaluations.
If APS employees were given a similar survey, they would report low morale and dissatisfaction with their chief too.

Low morale doesn't flow from bad circumstances, as much as it flows from bad leadership.

We have only the school board's word for it, by means of a 3/4 million dollar golden parachute, that Brooks is any great shakes as a superintendent.

Good leaders and newspapers pay attention to employee morale as a leading indicator of institutional and systemic ill-heath.  The only leaders who want to cover up low morale, are those whose lack of good leadership destroys morale.  Those who will not survey morale, decline to do so because they are afraid of the results.  If morale were high, they would be measuring it twelve ways from Sunday.

The newspapers that enable the cover up of low morale in public systems and institutions, do so in a least tacit support destructive leadership in the Albuquerque Police Department and in the Albuquerque Public schools.

Frankly, I've never understood why teachers unions don't run subordinate evaluations as a matter of course.

I have always understood why powerful public servants don't conduct subordinate evaluation; their lack of character and or, their lack of courage.

APS Supt Winston Brooks will never stand for subordinate evaluation.  He can summon neither the requisite character nor the requisite courage.

Or am I missing something?
