I frequently post about what makes working for the City of Prairie Village great. Here's another example: Public Works Department Assistant Superintendent Ryan King could delegate scraping ice off sidewalks to any number of subordinates. But (and this is no surprise) he doesn't even think twice about picking up a shovel and clearing them himself. If your immediate supervisor doesn't lead like Ryan, maybe you should look at some of the job openings at www.pvkansas.com/jobs. It's not just Public Works -- every department here has leaders like Ryan. #prairievillage

While this seems funny at first glance, the sad reality is that this does happen from time to time within the zoo industry, particularly in places where the management of a zoo or safari park is overseen by people with poor to no management skills. These zoos or safari parks will often employed staff with little to no experience because they are cheaper than experienced staff or because they are friends or relatives of those doing the employing. If we in the zoo industry wish to continue moving ahead and be taken seriously as a professional industry, then all should shun this type of behavior. Hiring inexperienced staff to care for the collection or to oversee the daily management of the park because they are a cheaper alternative to the more experienced professionals within our industry in an attempt to save a few dollars, is often the mistake made by poor managers and is a sure fire recipe for disaster. The saying "you get what you pay for" is definitely true in the case of your park. If the staff caring for the collection, guiding, or management only consider their position as just a job and have no passion for what they do, then how can anyone except them to do their job to a high level and to have any loyalty to your zoo or safari park. timhusband2005@gmail.com
