Most of us had to learn leadership lessons the hard way. A panel of senior managers present an array of lessons from the trenches of local government.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

  • Recognize the most common leadership challenges and pivotal decision points encountered in local government management careers, as shared through the lived experiences of seasoned city and county managers.
  • Examine key lessons learned from real-world successes and missteps in local government leadership — including relationship-building, political navigation, organizational culture, and community engagement — and assess their relevance to participants' own career stages and contexts.
  • Apply at least one insight gained from panel perspectives to their current or anticipated management practice, identifying specific adjustments they can make to strengthen their leadership effectiveness and professional resilience.
