In reality, the work of evaluating cadres in Hai Phong has changed in terms of awareness and working methods in a practical and objective manner, linked to the results of the implementation of tasks of collectives and individual leaders and managers. The work of cadre planning is carried out systematically, closely, publicly and transparently; quality is emphasized; planning of Party Committee positions is used as the basis for planning leadership and management positions. The work of rotating cadres has gradually overcome the closed situation; basically arranging Party Committee secretaries who are not local people; giving priority to increasing young cadres to work at the grassroots level. The work of training and fostering cadres has achieved many positive results. Decentralization of cadre management and appointment and introduction of cadres have been implemented seriously and democratically, ensuring "the right person, the right job"; timely completing and supplementing the positions of missing and deficient leaders and managers.
