Dan Meridor once said that "there is a growing gap in Israel between the qualifications required to be elected to office, and the qualifications really required to hold office. We have a problem with the system."
I completely agree with the first sentence and disagree with the second sentence. The problem is not in the system, the problem or rather the challenge, lies in us the voters and the way of making the decision which of the candidates to choose for mayor.
(The elections for local authorities will be held on 31/10/2023)
think from the head and not from the stomach
Much has been said about the connection between emotions and politics and how Emotions drive voters make a decision. Human nature gives a lot of weight to feelings and their respect is given in their place. However, it is important to remember that at the end of the day our goal is to choose the most suitable candidate for the revival of the city and its management in the directions of prosperity and growth. We don't want to choose a placat or an image candidate who doesn't have much behind him. Therefore, in this article we will discuss considerations and points for thought - the ten commandments for electing a mayor, if you will, that every voter (the use of the masculine form for convenience only) should refer to when forming an opinion on which of the candidates to support.
The ten commandments for the candidate
1. Vision and plan
The state of the city is bad, it seems that most of the residents feel this way and the number of candidates for the mayorship indicates this as well. What is even more certain is that Haifa is very far from realizing its potential. Therefore, we need a mayor with a vision, who thinks numerically and big and has a plan on how to realize the vision. Such planning must be connected to the city's capabilities and data, resource mobilization, repositioning and branding of the city and of course backed by a serious and proven work team. Ask the candidates what their vision is and how they will work to realize it. The answers will indicate the degree of seriousness of the candidates.
2. personality
There is no doubt that this is one of the most important and yet difficult factors to diagnose and identify, certainly when a voter lacks personal familiarity with the candidates. However, try to pay attention to the personality characteristics of the candidates:
• Ability to lead, lead and withstand pressure, especially during difficult times for the city.
• The candidate's personal example in terms of reliability, honesty and cleanliness and the ability to avoid populist election promises.
• Ability to like and speak at eye level with a variety of populations and a genuine desire to listen and learn.
• Critical thinking skills that include analyzing data and facts in order to base informed decisions on them.
3. Collaborations
Politics is a game of compromises and finding a way to work together between several partners with different and sometimes opposing needs. The more experienced a candidate is in building collaborations, the more efficient and faster the city management will be. Also, in a situation of fruitful cooperation, ego conflicts, quarrels and personal attacks are avoided. A candidate with a proven background in building collaborations between a variety of like-minded people is definitely better than someone who is inexperienced or fails to connect people.
4. team player
Building relationships is essential, but maintaining and nurturing collaboration is just as important. A candidate who is a team player understands that there are a variety of opinions in the management of the city and the mayor does not hold the absolute truth or understand every area. A smart candidate, knows how much he doesn't know and delegates authority to people around him, listens to criticism and is ready to change his mind in the face of reasoned arguments. An effective way to identify which type of candidate is in front of us: a team player speaks in the plural - "we", others speak in the singular - "I" (me and me...). Of course, the ability to establish a professional, experienced and businesslike team is necessary in order to manage the city efficiently. Ask yourself and the candidates, who is the team standing by their side.
5. Receive a review
A worthy candidate, open to receiving factual criticism and able to receive it on two levels.
The first layer, as constructive feedback to improve and advance the city's goals.
The second layer, to respect the audit tensioner without marking it and/or managing an accounting book with anyone who disagrees with the candidate. We all know people who are "like talking to a wall" or "have no one to talk to".
A candidate perceived as such certainly cannot serve as mayor when he is required to make countless important decisions. It is important to remember that in many cases, the people around the mayor know better than him what needs to be done due to their field of expertise and experience. A successful mayor will know how to listen and decide on a case-by-case basis.
6. Connections in Jerusalem
In order for Haifa to be able to realize its potential, government decisions prioritizing Haifa and the north and the allocation of financial resources will be required, among other things.
Today, Haifa's representation in the Knesset corridors is not one of the best, to say the least, and a candidate is needed who can turn the tables on her. A worthy candidate will bring a broad range of connections and will be able to reach the decision makers in order to receive financial resources and decisions to implement that will benefit Haifa.
In this context, Political identification of a candidate with any party may buy him his world or alternatively, be used as a double-edged sword That will give Haifa more years of being ignored by the central government.
7. Knowledgeable and updated
Most of the time, a mayor does not cut ribbons and hangs out at outdoor events. Most of his time should be spent "in the boring and gray part", in implementing the city's vision and solving problems for the well-being of the residents.
Therefore, a candidate for mayor must control and keep up to date with the important details in the fields of the economy, construction, education, health, personal security and more. The candidate should regularly keep up to date with material changes and master the material. An excellent way to check how well the candidates know and are up-to-date on what is happening in the city is through their interviews with the media, updates on social networks and the answers they give us in the home circles that follow us for the better.
8. Organizational-budgetary experience
The budget of Haifa Municipality is about NIS 2.4 billion. The head of the city should have a budget understanding, knowledge of financial statements and a desire to delve into the sections without touching anything. Knowledge of the budgets of the various departments and municipal companies is required, to know how to move funds and find creative financing solutions. Therefore, in this aspect, candidates with previous and many years of experience working in large organizations, with budgets of at least tens of millions of shekels per year and managing people from a variety of departments, should be preferred.
9. accessible to the resident
To manage a city and in particular to manage and work with people, it is necessary to meet and listen to opinions and ideas. Haifa is a city with a variety of problems and changing needs.
In order to address problems in an optimal way, the mayor is required to be accessible to the residents and attentive to their needs through media interviews, regular meetings, public participation events and providing tools to express themselves (social networks, the municipality's website, a call center).
Any candidate who behaves differently, withdraws, refuses to meet and is mainly busy spreading his doctrine without listening to the residents - does not deserve our support.
10. Warning lights!
How do we know who not to choose? Well, there are several warning lights that will light up in our heads in the following situations:
• The "me, me and me" candidate - I did, I will manage, I know. In contrast, a candidate who speaks in "we" is very interesting to hear his words since it seems that he understands the need to work in a team and addresses the limitations of his abilities.
• Financing - ask each candidate how he finances his election campaign and who is behind it. It is the right of every candidate to raise financial support in legal ways and on the other hand it is our duty! Know where the money comes from. It is important that we know about any financial financing from those with an interest so that we can examine whether their interests are compatible with ours and Haifa's.
• Lack of knowledge and/or control of important details. For example, what is the municipality's budget, the percentage of residents under the age of 18 or the number of vandalism incidents in the last year. A candidate who does not control the details shows laziness and superficiality. Obviously, candidates should not be expected to be a walking statistician, but they are expected to master basic numbers and information.
• Serial avoidance of direct answers. There are politicians who have perfected this into an art, but don't give up on the candidates. Insist on direct and reasoned answers to your questions.
• Personal attack of other candidates: Considering attack is the best defense, some candidates will choose to explain why the others are not good and how many shortcomings they have. It is more interesting to hear from a candidate why he thinks he is the most deserving and to justify it. In this matter, pay particular attention to attacks on a person's body instead of on the body of an object. Such attacks may sometimes confuse and convince, but in fact there is no connection between the argument and the person to whom the argument refers. These are malicious attacks that you must identify and put the candidates in their place if they make them. Negative examples: he's too old, he's too young, he hasn't done anything in life, he doesn't have it, he's irrelevant and more.
• Lack of vision and plan: each candidate must present his vision to the city and how he intends to implement it. If a candidate does not present a vision, what exactly is he running for? And what does he intend to do after he chooses? Insist on a description of the candidate's vision and a general description of a plan for execution.
• Slogans: How many times have we heard that they will reduce the property tax, remove the polluting factories from the Gulf in a short time and many other promises that have no cover? If you come across a candidate who blurts out such slogans, press him and ask how exactly he intends to meet these goals.
Gender and age of candidates
I meet with many caring people, for all of whom the city is important and they want to help and lead a change for the better in Haifa. Two disturbing things are much more than the conversations and it is important to pay attention to them.
The first thing that comes up is that there is a fear of women presenting their candidacy for mayor. The concern stems from the assumption that Klish's failure to manage the city will harm another woman's chances of being elected in the upcoming elections. I don't know if this is a real concern, but the very fact that it comes up frequently in conversations indicates a problem. I don't recall that when men failed in office (and history is replete with examples), anyone worried that another man's chances of being elected would be harmed. Women make up 51.7% of Haifa's population, half of the city! Every candidate deserves an equal chance and we will examine her work and abilities in a substantive comparison to the other candidates. In Haifa women are very worthy of public activity and I call on every suitable woman to present her candidacy and every voter to give an equal opportunity to the candidate or candidates.
The second thing that comes up is the issue of the candidate's age. Some wish for a "young and energetic" candidate and some aspire to a "responsible adult". Sometimes I hear an argument against a candidate who is too old and I hope that a young and successful candidate will come like in other cities. With the exception of extreme cases, the age of the candidates has very little, if anything, to do with the management abilities of the city. Every city and every candidate is different, and when comparing what is happening in other cities, you should take into account the variety of factors (such as previous experience, training, characteristics of the city, its size) and certainly not focus on age alone. We can all think of examples of excellent and bad older candidates and, alternatively, excellent and bad young candidates. Do not favor or disfavor any candidate because of their age.
Summary - Haifa needs a mayor, not a placat
All of us as humans are driven by both emotions and rational thoughts. It's easy to get carried away and "go with your heart" and populist candidates will focus on just that. But when we come to choose a candidate for mayor, we should remember the ten commandments mentioned in the article and not allow ourselves to "fall in love" with some unfounded candidate.
"Make life difficult" for the candidates, ask them difficult and incisive questions and look for well-founded and serious answers. An informed choice based on knowledge and facts will increase the chance that the city hall will have a worthy mayor in the future with a real ability to fix the city's problems and allow it to grow.

Dear AA, First of all, I am very sorry that you were hurt by me. When I write I write from my place. And this is about the neglect of Rotem Kalisher in the Hadar neighborhood. The Hadar neighborhood is different from the German colony. Of course you should be beautiful and stylish, because this is a neighborhood where a lot of bags come. I don't disagree with you. As for Yona Yahav, Shevda for a long life. And Father Khushi, the late, who made a holy kingdom for the city. Because of Kalisher Rotem, the proverb was said: "Your swords and your destroyers come out of you: Because during her tenure as mayor, Kalish managed to destroy the city. And what is certain is that Iam Yona Yahav will run again, I will choose him big time.
I am offended by you Mr. Anonymous. I love the city of Haifa. I was born in Haifa and the surrounding area. I understood Radi Arim like Abba Khushi. What a labor for us. And Gural and Yona Yahav.. The most Gural took care of her from any invasion of Arabs who came from Arab villages and especially those who entered the houses in Wadi Rushmia and more in the streets of the lower city, he evicted them frighteningly to abandoned apartments and buildings. Thanks to him, the downtown is cleaner and more well-maintained. There is an influx today
of young people and business owners to all the abandoned buildings and the city thanks to Yona Yahav who encouraged the young people to open businesses in the lower city only wanted to develop the lower city. And to the extent that he allowed them significant reductions in the property tax as long as they live in and maintain the building and receive only benefits. And in my opinion, a lot of young people have succeeded today by hanging out in the lower city and some of them live there close to their businesses. Today I am driving down the city road and see how lively the city is. Enjoying how the nymphs come there. The city of Haifa was called the city of the working people who sleep and do not go out to spend time like the Telavibi why do they drink water.
I don't choose anyone. They're all garbage that promise and don't deliver. I'm leaving Haifa anyway. and returns to Tel Aviv. I am going through a very difficult time here. The inhabitants of the city of Haifa are barbarians, of which it is said: A city that eats its inhabitants. The Hadar neighborhood which is called a refugee camp. which come from her all the mi and mi. Dubbed, Samoans, residents who have no place to sleep live in houses in the invasion. Nasty city. Who will be elected mayor who is glued to the chair and does nothing. Take for example Rotem Klisher. What fish did she bring to the city of Haifa. Nothing. So don't teach us who to choose. and how to choose The city of Haifa is a city of the father of disgust. Do you think I'm resentful? And spending it on writing a comment. You are wrong, the evidence speaks for itself.
As a resident of the city, I have not heard the mayor once on the radio……..
And not on TV either
That says it all
Kalish is cut off from the residents, I didn't see her once on the tour
And the audience feels that she is not connected to citizens in Haifa
Eyal, why do you bring so many senior employees. Most of the senior employees I know are according to department managers.
They were paid according to a contract and not astronomical sums. The majority of the employees are the employees who receive wages according to their status and according to their profession. You mess up too much. I personally know the director of the welfare department who was and his salary does not reach the amount you presented. He lives on millions would say the Louie.
The amount you charged is very excessive. And enough to get dirty. And their number in the municipality is not large as you mentioned
The mayor receives a salary like a minister. The one who got the most is the mayor. Those who receive a salary according to a contract do not receive any pension because every employee is rehired every year and so is the contract. And for the rest of the employees, the majority of their salary reaches the minimum salary or over a thousand shekels, some of the department deputies, their salary reaches maybe 9 or at the end of XNUMX. There are very few who work for many years because every year they receive an increase and even those who stay beyond working hours receive an hourly wage increase. So enough to get dirty. Tired of all the filth poured on the city employees. You speak as if there are time intervals regarding contractors. It is true that the workers receive little because the contractor determined so, not the municipality. The contractor takes most of the money. And they determine how much he will receive for an employee who will bring claims to the contractor, not to the municipality.
.
A.A. Hello from Haifa. You wrote: "Eyal is fed up with your persecution of the workers". Here too A.A. It will be as expensive as in the case of the pensions of the millionaire seniors who are hiding in the comments behind "there are also many very poor" - the 400 senior managers in the municipality (we are talking about salary costs of half a million shekels for such an employee...) are hiding behind the workers who earn minimum wage (although the situation of the municipality's employees Better, for example, than the municipal companies and corporations that earn even less with fewer retirement conditions, just to illustrate that even the lowest in the municipality itself is a much better situation if we compare even lower in contract employment and through corporations in the municipality, which were created to not give the conditions and accrual to high pensions of municipal employees through incidentally).
In other words, this whole mechanism is endlessly discriminatory and the Histadrut of course protects the rich workers, the orderly and extortionist committees, the inflated budgetary pension and all while playing masks behind the presentation of cleaning workers, assistants and shift workers. Bravo for this theater show, we're not buying it. The mayor created a municipality within a municipality with illegal personal contracts worth millions of shekels. About 500 workers were hired at Yona Yahav, exceeding the municipality's standards, with clear nepotism. Most of them are in the municipality to this day. It is not possible to be efficient like this, and the expenses on pensions are biting more and more into the development budget. Treasurer Jacky Vakim is sent every year to threaten the residents that if they do not raise property taxes, the services will be damaged, what he did not say is that the services are closed and damaged because of the millionaire pensioners - 2000 people who cost 350 million shekels, which is the budget of a municipality in Kiryat with 40 thousand residents. Does this make sense to anyone?? I don't.
and most importantly:
Let it belong to the old guys who have been pulling the strings and running the city behind the scenes for years.
who will simply be one of their plenums. One of the guys who decide.
Because if he doesn't belong, then his efforts are wasted. Because no matter how much he does to promote the city, the guys who run the city and influence the city media will kill him anyway
Haya, why did you bring it? Klish did not give them any intervention, but in the past they shared the opinion also voluntarily. For the sake of the municipality, the elderly did it more than you, they are residents of Haifa.
.
As soon as Klish allowed the failed city engineer Waterman to remain in his position and destroy further, I understood that she was afraid to make the necessary changes in the Haifa municipality. This municipality is suffering from dozens of poorly functioning departments and an excess of senior officials - 400.. !!! No municipal manager can succeed except by surrendering to the bullying of the municipal council that did not allow the firing of employees who refused to answer the phones. It's getting to the point of absurdity. Italian strikes, wasted vacationers, poor planning and the destruction of the engineering administration, a huge cut without any justification for the associates of political clans and much more.
Even the most talented mayor will not succeed in this municipality. What is needed right now is a committee called and an expert on revitalization, the dismissal of the treasurer and the city engineer and the bringing in of an external treasurer and a new city engineer to try to save Haifa from the role that Jerusalem assigns to it - Israel's national garbage can. Hani is building a city of ports that disconnects Haifa from the coastline and Kishon. Haifa has been going backwards for 25 years.
We must wake up quickly. Only an energetic young mayor who is an expert in business administration and the rehabilitation of companies and building innovative models. Preferably someone from the business sector who will come to an episode 10 years in advance will limit himself and come to rebuild this municipality so that it will return to work for Haifa.
One million percent right!!!!!
Tired of your chasing after employees. All employees pay monthly membership fees. And some have been working for years. Eyal you go against
The failed functioning of the municipal departments that do not answer the phones. You didn't say why. I will keep you and the residents informed. She has hurt all the employees. Employees are not robots. They are not women with a soul. And about Bezbusi vacation. For your information, everyone who went on vacation went on vacation at no one's expense. This is how we do it in all municipalities. In any normal workplace, they take care of all their conditions at work. Those who have conditions, the employees come to work with fun to take care of the atmosphere between the employees, but what Klish did only hurt the atmosphere
Just harsh words.
Every year each department builds plans according to
designations and according to a demand from the public and the municipality and according to which the workers worked.
But since taking office, she would check the attendance of the employee. She was a personal inspector
As a police officer for all employees. She would not give them attention to their problems, she ignored them. I will mention again and again as one who previously worked in the municipality. The municipality was awarded every year as an outstanding municipality by the local government. There were visits and criticism of the functioning of the municipality and everyone felt pioneering. Go above and beyond even from a place you loved the city of Haifa. I will point out
Yona Yahav was always careful to hire workers who were residents of Haifa and not residents of other countries, only to provide a job solution for its residents. Each worker contributed a lot to his city. A place that cares more. And she, on the contrary, chose employees
Consultants not from Haifa. And she pays salaries in the hundreds of thousands every month. You didn't mention that.
Tired of you, Eyal, with anti-criticism. Criticism is constructive but your criticism is wrong, the opposite is only harmful. Eyal, you are Anat Kalish's soldier. You always came out to protect her. I wonder why? And you go out and smear against Haifa workers. be ashamed Before you go, check what the salaries of employees with a degree are. quite
To go against the workers of Haifa, therefore, who will be willing to work at minimum wage for every new employee and who takes care of their promotion are the local government!!!
Exact! It is enough to see the regeneration of the city in the Carmel and Bensher castles and the migration of Haifaim or the absorption of many new residents in these settlements.
Another note - boasting in the city that it has beaches, specifically the Meridian beach (the Carmel beach) that is in front of the (tourism) hotels, the one that is particularly accessible to the residents of the coastal strip and up to the center of Carmel - closed during the winter season! winter…..
The result: urban renewal of the coastal neighborhoods + beach = 0
Yona Yahav was mayor of Ola
We need to convince him to run again.
I strongly recommend that you read my previous articles, your opinion may change.

Hi,
Why get involved in all kinds of formulas? Just look at the mayor of Be'er Sheva, and you will argue to know how a mayor is supposed to work for his city successfully. This is a great example that saves unnecessary bickering.
A classic mistake: basing an entire theory on one example. Please show more examples with support and numbers.
And as for Beer Sheva mayor Rubik Danilovich, to the best of my knowledge he served as Turner's deputy mayor for an entire term and for another term he served as acting mayor and head of the education department. This means that here is an example of a person who grew over time and gained experience.
Everyone gets what they choose. The donkeys will live in a barn, because they are not able to distinguish proper features from too many girls and flapping their ears. Yona Yahav was an amazing mayor, and here they talked about corruption and replacing and refreshing and a woman and an architectural black belt. . And that's what came out.
I highly recommend that you read my previous articles, you may change your mind.

Yona Yahav was bad!!!
That the employees will start working seriously and not talking.
Licensing tomorrow…..laughing at work….it takes months until they answer the letter…a change in the TBA????for an urban renewal????the years on years….
Tell me? Is this serious? - Why does it take 30 days to change a bank account abroad??
Are they from another planet? No, and neither are we from another planet.
There is a developer, all the plans have been submitted according to the law - we hold a yeshiva with all the parties, twice a week!!!!! Yes, twice a week.
Approve the request or request a change that is not casual and does not come from extraneous motives.
This is how you promote a city, this is how you renew neighborhoods,
What is happening today, they dissolve every request, wait years until the committee sits, weeks until a summary letter is issued, the desire to mess with the local authority is gone.
Live example:
I submitted an application to the Neighbors Tax for legalization of their apartments... 3 years later we received a request that included a payment
Another illegal addition to our house.
We filed an appeal - a year later it was accepted and the imposed tax was cancelled
We waited 4 months for the approval of the appeal to be signed!!! for a new charge
I have been waiting for more than a month to register the legalization...
So tell me this is not a dream state?
In an orderly and correct way, the whole story takes one day...
This is how some of the service providers work in the city,
And everything is funded by us...
Well done Hanan Markowitz for the article. Shabbat Shalom.
Because of the problem of the committee, the Histadrut and the workers, no mayor will succeed in Haifa! In order to solve the economic problems, it will be necessary to raise the property tax, which will drive more businesses and residents to the surrounding cities and deepen the economic problems again.
Only a mayor who outsources all municipal departments will succeed in rehabilitating the city, it will be difficult, dirty but worthwhile.
In short - an angel! Do you know such a perfect candidate in Haifa, here on earth, that is, in real life?
You have to choose the candidate whose total abilities (according to the 10 commandments) are the best of all.
It is not and will not be perfect.
Yahav was perfectly fine..it's a shame he didn't continue....he did wonderful things in Haifa..Hanamel street downtown...Grand Canyon tunnel..new roads...the heroes....without Yona Yahav we would be in the Middle Ages now......it's a shame he won't want to come back.. I'm already too old for sure....I miss Lihav... ..it's a shame he didn't continue...
I strongly recommend that you read my previous articles, your opinion may change.

You convinced me. Hanan, run for mayor, my vote is guaranteed to you. You know what is needed. What remains is to be chosen and apply.
The residents of Haifa have proven over 60 years (after Abba Khushi) that they are unable to elect a suitable mayor.
The solution is for the Ministry of the Interior to manage the city for a few years, for its recovery.
53 years. no more. Since the day Khushistan passed away from the world.
If you bring back Khushi or something like him we will have to bring back Nadel or something like him. They don't make these anymore.
Next time, just not Kalish. A mistake is not repeated.
Nice sermon!!! One note regarding connections in Jerusalem: they are not a prerequisite, they can develop on the fly.
What is certain is that connections and budgets will come when the government and the mayor are from the same party.
Kalman, you are right, start thinking that maybe the municipality will start operating robots. Because you are rude. The work of the employees is not appreciated. Workers over thirty years put in extra hours without any compensation. Because they did it from a place of love for the city of Haifa. Yona Yahav always demanded that the workers be residents of Haifa. By the way, Klish employed workers who do not live in Haifa. Yona Yahav preferred them because he thought of a way to employ the residents of Haifa. And here it is proven that it was important to him that they work in the city. Because he correctly estimated that they will invest from their soul in their city where they live. The robots that will work on them will also be criticized because there will always be something to say because some people think that Haifa workers will work for nothing. You see workers walking around the streets and there are no community workers in a street group or nursing workers. Field workers, and street gang workers, their job is to walk around the streets and Habaruk and discover marginalized youth who are walking around homeless and more. They try to find the homeless youth. Haifa municipality employees do not receive salaries higher than their salary, most of them are minimum wage
Interested in working, but how many shekels are the minimum salaries? Not tall at all, shame on you. .
After Yahav and Tsna, who were really bad mayors, Kelish should continue in my opinion as a long-time resident. There are still many things to improve in the city, such as reducing property taxes, privatizing departments in the municipality and streamlining, urban renewal in the old and shabby neighborhoods such as Hadar and the beach neighborhoods, but let's hope that in her next term we will already see improvements in these areas In one area I see a significant improvement, many young people from the center are coming to Haifa which is welcome, in my opinion the coming years will see significant positive immigration data to Haifa after years of negative (mainly Jewish) immigration. Of course we have to wait for official data.
Another year of cliche and the resignation of the handful of city employees who still remain, it will really be possible to completely abolish the property tax. Everyone will take care of their own garbage, take the sewage on foot in the morning to a collection point outside of Haifa (after all, there will be no one to maintain the roads) and so on.
I highly recommend that you read my previous articles, you may change your mind.

I read every word. A beauty of analysis, diagnosis of problems and ways of solving them, focus and guidance in general. You wrote wisely and clearly for everyone. There is no doubt that you understand a matter and are endowed with many diverse abilities that not everyone has. I wish you could realize and promote - I'm with you (:!
Woe. Tell me what the city looks like to you. you look like me as abandoned There are candidates who are boring and superior to her. She ruined a good part of it and whoever wrote the comment is clearly the only one who wrote it
The survey is not enough, how many percent did you get barely 6 percent if it's good then you need mental therapy pills.
