The Story So far: The Mindful Activist Topic ArchiveAsk me anything. :)Matt is a politician?Yes, currently Matt Ready is an elected public hospital commissioner for Jefferson County Hospital District #2 03252022. Capricious Action AccusationDuring the latest executive session of the Jefferson Healthcare board of commissioners,complaints were levied against Matt Ready who was accused of committing capricious action in his role as hospital commissioner.It as claimed by commissioner JB that Matt Ready committed a capricious act by giving a poor rating to the CEO on his latest evaluation on leadership, support to the board, and overall.Matt Ready rated the CEO low on leadership, support to the board, and overall, because of his handling of the recording conflict which stretched from 2014 to 2021, when it should have easily been resolved using expert legal advice. Instead legal advice wthe 2016-2021 recording conflict of the Jefferson Healthcare board of commissioners took 7 years to resolve because legal advice and information was obstructed from the board. Misleading legal information was given by non lawyers. a 2016 Written legal oa 2016 written legal opinion was not given to the full board until 2021, and only after the board voted to hire its own lawyer to answer lingering questions.Commissioner JB said it was wrong for Matt Ready to hold the CEO accountable for a legal opinion withheld from the board from 2016 to 2021, because the legal opinion was from 2016. the other 4 commissioners all seemed to enthusiastically agree with JB judgment that the complaint was valid and that commissioner Ready was wrong to rate the CEO low for withholding a vital legal opinion for 5 years from the full board.After the complaint was voiced, commissioner JB, KK, BC, and MD all proceeded to brainstorm generatively what punitive actions could be taken against Matt Ready. They discussed censure, legal action, and changing the board policy book.Commissioner KK suggested the board enlist the help of a lawyer to discuss what action could be taken against Matt Ready as a followup action to the current complaint, which they all apparently judged valid and fully investigated.Commissioner JB stated she would contact the MRSC and the AWPHD to ask what action could be taken against Matt Ready due to his capricious actions, which all commissioners agreed was wrong and fully investigated.During the accusation of capricious action in his CEO rating, Commissioner JB presented Matt Readys evaluation as evidence. She read outloud the score Matt Ready gave, but failed to read outloud the clear and specific comments Matt Ready wrote in his evaAt no point during the presentation of the complaint or during the discussion of what type of punitive action should be taken, did Matt Ready speak or participate in this illegal court of judge, jury, and sentencing hearing.The behavior of my fellow board members over the years has demonstrated many sad and dissapointing failures in leadership.It began with the board accusing Matt Ready of violating his fiduciary duty when Matt Ready insisted on recording full audio of all board meetings. This accusation was based on a poor understanding of the law.
