Board approves demotion of federal programs manager after internal review
Summary
Following an internal appeal process, the State Board approved the director’s personnel action to demote the agency’s federal programs manager; the board voted to carry out the demotion after a recorded vote.
The Oklahoma CareerTech State Board approved the director’s personnel action to demote the agency’s federal programs manager after agency managers completed an internal review and appeal process.
Background given to the board: Agency leadership told the board the demotion followed performance evaluations handled by the manager’s supervisor, review by the agency’s salary-adjustment committee and a pre‑appeal process to the director. The director said the decision was not taken lightly and that the board, by policy, must approve or disapprove the director’s personnel action.
Board action and vote: A motion to approve the director’s action to demote the federal programs manager was made and seconded. The board recorded unanimous yes votes from members present and directed staff to carry out the demotion. The director invited the board to go into executive session if members wished additional confidential briefing; the board instead conducted the vote in open session.
What the transcript records: Meeting minutes and the board’s vote record show the board approved the demotion. The transcript includes slightly inconsistent spellings of the manager’s name in different remarks; the board’s action in the public record is to approve the director’s personnel action.
Privacy and procedure note: Personnel details beyond the agency statement were not discussed in public session; the board followed the agency’s appeal procedures and recorded its public vote.
