Dalmau, the strongman of the Government

The collaborators of the Minister of the Presidency, Albert Dalmau, hear him say a phrase of his own making practically every day: "Eye on strategy, foot on operations." It's the philosophy that sums up the changes Dalmau is trying to implement in the Catalan administration after a decade in which, according to the PSC, the pro-independence governments were distracted by the Process and neglected public services. Revving up the Catalan government's performance is one of the tasks he received from President Salvador Illa, who has also left the coordination of the government's departments (and their communications) in the hands of the Minister of the Presidency. In all of this, Minister Dalmau is applying the foundations of a management style he already deployed in Barcelona, where he served as municipal manager until the summer after serving as Jaume Collboni's right-hand man.
