PMG Potter Names Cochrane and Betman to VP Positions
As Vice President, Corporate Communications, Betman is responsible for all internal and external communications for the Postal Service, including media relations, design and brand equity, video production and photography, speechwriting and community relations.
Betman most recently served as Director, Operations Planning and Strategies, in the office of the Deputy PMG and Chief Operating Officer. There she performed the duties of chief of staff and principal executive for implementation and coordination of national postal operations plans and strategies
Head of communications? That means she’s running the idiotic commercials, spin and PR lies and bullshit on behalf of Donahoe. She tells a community their plant won’t shut down and then the plant gets shut down anyway? Is she like the management in New Jersey who claimed they always followed the law and forced workers during hurricane Sandy to report despite an evacuation order, where the workers ended up having to go through the roof by helicopter to get out?
The chief disseminator.
TSP is right…we should just have clerks, mail handlers and carriers….everything else will work itself out.
I need to put my glasses on before I turn on the computer. I thought the title said Batman.
In the end it doesn’t matter. All Postal managers think they are superheroes.
this is a good person,i worked with her at old PG,good choose!
No corporation or organization should need a vice president to assist executives in communicating with each other. If they haven’t learned how to communicate-they shouldn’t be executives. Oh, I forgot. We’re talking about the Post Office. Never mind.
Just what the PO needs: more overpaid management morons who don’t do anything but make stupid decisions just to justify their position. Congress should do the USPS a favor and remove all the idiots in postal management who are driving the business into the ground. And they can put Donahoe in jail for lying to Congress and the American people every time he opens his mouth.
Just have a good connection and you all set.
do a real.job on the floor moving the.mail and yes just another overpaid kiis.as
All those words Donahoe,and I have no idea what qualifies her,does she have a degree or an uncle who “mentored” her ?
Another waste of time and money
This press release says absolutely nothing about her real job experience or exactly what this new VP will be doing or why its needed.
Please tell me again how she reduces costs, generates new sources of income, and contribute to a work place environment that increases safety
*Another* overpaid, under worked clown in mgmt. that does nothing to contribute to the movement and/or delivery of the mail.
