Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

These funds primarily support our General Manager position. These funds mean that the regular operation of the orchestra is able to continue including preparing music, using rehearsal spaces, communicating with members, etc. We do an annual review of all of our paid positions including the General Manager. This consists of survey of the members of the orchestra as to the quality of the job done by each of our paid positions including communication, leadership, and thoroughness. This is followed by conversation with evaluation committee from the board regarding the results of that survey.
