Leadership is challenged mentally and emotionally - Anonymous employee victim assistance program Employee Review

Thank you for expressing your concerns. I am sorry your work experience at Victim Assistance was different than others who have worked for us over the years. It is not uncommon for some staff to vocalize their dissatisfaction about an Executive Director. Staff can express their concerns through anonymous written or electronic comments, or by contacting our board chair directly. Only in this way can I as the CEO ensure that I am leading the organization with empathy, integrity, transparency, and ethics. On two occasions, upon my request to the Board, the Board contracted with a third-party agency to evaluate my leadership outside of their own ongoing reviews. The results concluded that staff were confident in my ability to lead the staff and the agency. We take our staff’s concerns seriously and we continue to evaluate the leadership team on an ongoing basis.
