has brought to Wisconsin DNR management the "chamber of commerce mentality" that Scott Walker wanted her to implement, and implement she says she will:
...the things that I am most thankful for and proud of of our team is that we have implemented business management practices that will ensure that the philosophies from the top are carried all the way through all levels of the department.
Plus:
When I walked in the door six years ago, DNR was set up like five different regions, different DNRs with their own little DNR secretaries as the regional directors and you cannot effectively run a corporation that is clear in its directive and its mission and its actions that they carry out - the way they answer the questions of the people who do business with them - when you have that many bosses, if you will," she said.  
And:
"It doesn't matter what my personal opinion is. I'm not a policy person like I was in the old days. My job now is to implement." 
Talk about a perfect, yes-person bureaucrat!
