As an elected or appointed leader, it’s easy to get mired down in the day-to-day necessities of managing a local government organization. However, if you don’t take some time to step back and set a strategic direction, your community will struggle at sustained success. This week we look at the value of moving out of the “meeting-to-meeting” mindset, and setting aside some time each year to discuss big picture issues. We’ll provide listeners with tips on how to set an engaging, productive agenda, ensure your Board is prepared for the session, create a productive environment, and produce value for the time invested.
