Block
by Block has promoted Merle Cattani to the position of Operations
Manager for the Dayton Downtown Partnership account. Previously
Mr. Cattani had served as the Operations Supervisor for the
Over the Rhine and Findlay Market Accounts in Cincinnati .
In his previous position Mr. Cattani displayed a great sense
of ownership and attention to detail in all matters related
to day to day field operations of the two accounts he was
previously assigned to. These traits combined with his proven
ability to lead employees and interact with clients led were
greatly attributed to his selection as the Operations Manager
in Dayton .
Prior
to joining Block by Block in May of 2004, Cattani had been
managing partner in his family's convenience store and truck
stop chain. His role in overseeing day to day operations of
this business as well as his oversight of long term projects
made him a great fit for the challenges posed as an Operations
Manager within the Block by
Block organization.
In
his new position Mr. Cattani will be responsible for client
and employee relations of the Downtown Dayton Partnership
Ambassador Program. Specific duties will include setting the
work plan for daily operations, recruitment, selection and
training of ambassadors, and back office functions to include
payroll, background screening and reporting. The knowledge
that Mr. Cattani brings from his experience in the Over the
Rhine and Findlay Market account will surely be applied to
developing a sound program to exceed the expectations of the
Downtown Dayton Partnership and its constituents.
The
Ambassadors of the Downtown Dayton Partnership will be responsible
for delivering safety, cleaning and hospitality services initially
to the Third and Main Corridor of Downtown Dayton, which serves
as the transit hub of the city. Safety Ambassadors will be
responsible for creating a visible deterrent, while on foot
or bicycle. Cleaning Ambassadors will provide services in
the form of litter removal, graffiti removal, weed eradication,
power washing or other special projects that augment city
services and improve the overall perception of Downtown Dayton.
