There are a couple of things that will serve as bellwethers for what we can expect from a Trump Administration. Pay attention to who he appoints to head his transition team and who he appoints to be his chief-of-staff.
His failure to date to create an organization means that he does not presently have a “deep bench”. The people to whom he reaches out will be telling.
Will he decide on the staff management architecture used by Ike and Reagan or the “buck stops here” one that has tended to be favored by Democrats? There are a lot of questions.
Supposedly, he had a transition team putting together the candidates for the Cabinet positions, and it was being headed by Gov. Christie. The candidates being considered were supposed to be good according to the political and business people who saw the lists. The team was halted some weeks back to help campaign.
Some time back, he did stop tweeting his every thought, and this was attributed to his campaign taking away his twitter device or account. Now, I doubt that anybody could “take away” anything from Trump, and therefore, somebody(s) must have convinced him to stop. I suspect Kellyanne Conway, his wife, or daughter.
If he keeps Kellyanne Conway around as Chief of Staff, consigliere, or the XO, she should keep him within bounds.
He was running a large successful business that included building large buildings. I doubt he was sitting at an AutoCAD drafting workstation as the piping, electrical, and HVAC designer for a building. It is impossible to do what he was doing without delegating, and he had to find the right person for the right job.
Often, the job is outside of the person’s knowledge area, skill set, or comfort zone, and to be really successful, the trick is identifying and convincing the person that they can do job.
