Platform: Williams hopes to encourage more amicable working relationships between the board and the future town manager, as well as between the board and certain sectors of the Genoa community. As a former Managing Editor for one book publisher, Editor in Chief for another, and Publications/Communications Manager for Systemwide Administration for the University of California, he appreciates the role of professional managers and believes that boards should select competent performers, then not micro-manage them in their jobs.
