HECHTMAN Financial Analyst (Retired) New York City Transit Authority New York, NY marquismillennium.com/4thEd/Hechtman/197/ What are two key behaviors/personality traits that allow you to be effective in your role? Knowing what the rules were and understanding what was being explained by the union. If you could do that, you would be in good shape. Also, being able to understand what the organization was trying to accomplish and what the issues were, sometimes on a political basis. That would often indicate what decisions should be made. How do you feel your industry has changed/evolved? The organization started adding individuals who, in 1968, would not have been given a senior post, and they began considering more employees who wouldn’t have been thought of earlier on. What innovations or technologies do you feel will shape the future of your industry? Public relations because it is important to relate to the population more effectively than we did 48 years ago. What excites you the most about your industry? I worked for an organization that, at the time, employed 45,000 to 50,000 people. They also had about another 20,000 or 30,000 for other regions, such as the Long Island Rail Road or Metro-North Railroad. So, there were different organizations within the primary company, and they all related to each other. They were all tied together, which made things more efficient over the decades.
