Rich Guidice has agreed to end his two-week “retirement” to serve as Johnson’s first chief of staff, with state Sen. Christina Pacione-Zayas as his deputy.
on Thursday chose Guidice, a respected City Hall lifer, to fill the most important role a mayor has to fill, particularly one without executive experience.
He knows city government like the back of his hand, having started as a laborer and worked his way up to executive director of the city’s Office of Emergency Management and Communications , which operates Chicago’s 911 emergency center. "That type of collaborative spirit will serve him well as he’s trying to direct departments," Lee said. "He seemed to have a good understanding of what motivates people in city government, particularly levels of mid-management and below. That level of motivation and what inspires people to act is really important."Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson said the teenagers who rampaged through downtown last weekend deserve sympathy as much as punishment.
During the interview process, Guidice "told a lot of stories" about opportunities he’s had to make a real difference in peoples’ lives," Lee said."When he started this, the time between when your car was taken and when you got it back was averaging well over 120 hours. And he was able to, by working with various partners, get that recovery time down to about 55 hours," Lee said.
