The human resource policy adopted by the newly elected President of
the Republic of Armenia became obvious after the nomination of the
Prime Minister, Defense Minister, and the Foreign Minister.
The choice of the before mentioned three positions testifies to
the fact that the time of the professionals is approaching. High
professionalism is the main quality that "unites" Tigran Sargsyan,
Seyran Ohanyan and Edward Nalbandyan.
If we used to express concern that the key responsible for the
country's economy, the Prime Minister, must be well aware not only of
Armenia's political and economic peculiarities, but also the current
tendencies of the world's economic and financial system, so we can
say that this issue is solved by Tigran Sargsyan's appointment.
If we used to discuss and publish a lot that the Defense Minister
must combine the qualities of a professional serviceman and a direct
participant in the military actions, with a strong will and good
personality, then we must definitely say that Seyran Ohanyan is a
perfect choice in this term.
If we used to publish and discuss a lot that the Foreign Minister
must combine his professional diplomatic knowledge, with a rich
experience of practical diplomatic activity in different countries
then this issue is also solved with Edward Nalbandyan's appointment,
who has been in diplomatic service beginning from 1978.
By these appointments S. Sargsyan displays that in the framework of
coalition cooperation he gives preference to professionalism and that
party membership is not a sufficient factor to hold positions.
Taking into account the stance adopted by the newly elected Prime
Minister, we can conclude that the presence of the kinsmen of
different party members on different levels of government will be
restricted. This circumstance will greatly contribute to the quality
of the activity of the executive body, because professional leaders
usually surround themselves with individuals of the same qualitative
parameters.
The reason is evident: if for many years it has become a tradition in
our reality that non-professional Ministers surround themselves with
non-professional assistants, at present they can't play any role in
the atmosphere of high professionalism.
Thus from the beginning of his tenure the newly elected President
proves that he intends to increase the effectiveness of the whole
state governing system, which is one of the decisive circumstances
of the continuation of reforms.
The spheres where the professionals have taken the role of the
reformers used to record a great deal of success in our reality,
during the past years. Unlike the political figures for whom reform
was an end in itself, those are usually more conservative; when they
initiate reforms in certain spheres they calculate their next step,
thus providing higher results.
The philosophy of the reforms made by the professionals is to provide
maximum productivity with minimum losses. By adopting similar mode
of action and the succession of the steps deriving from it, the new
executive power can swiftly eliminate the negative tendencies recorded
after the recent political concussions and develop the country,
in a very short period of time.
