I don't know what to make of this

From the Washington Business Journal, "Fenty names economic development deputy." It's Neil Albert. From the article:

Fenty says that Albert, if confirmed by the D.C. Council, will take the lead on all of the city's economic development initiatives. Fenty says Albert shares his vision for community development and commitment to neighborhood outreach and will deliver investment to "segments of the community that have been left behind."

Though Albert's resume includes little in the way of business experience, Fenty says he selected him for his management skills.

"He's strong at making a decision at the end of the day," Fenty said of Albert during a press conference to announce his appointment Monday morning. During the event, Fenty says his team has decided to "downsize" other deputy mayor positions, eliminating the deputy mayors who oversee city operations, public safety and Albert's old position, which was responsible for children's and senior citizens' programs. The idea is to make directors at city agencies immediately accountable to the mayor and the city administrator.
