The City Manager Forum is city managers helping city managers. The atmosphere is casual and inspiring.

COMMENT FROM PAST PARTICIPANT

Fellow City Manager,

A few months ago I attended a forum where there were 8 city managers. For most of the day, we had a round table discussion on municipal issues. It was engaging to participate with others who really understood my challenges as a city manager. Connections to tested resources, support and inspiring ideas filled the room. If I would have missed the forum, I would have missed a very good idea.

Greeting a citizen with courtesy and intention to help when they arrive at City Hall takes away much of there negative energy. Help them to quickly find the person that can handle their challenges. Mastering this concept creates good chatter about the city among citizens.

Consultant Barbara Greene facilitated a program on executive onboarding showing why it is so important to have a 6 month plan. It was pointed out that a large Catholic Hospital reduced their turn over of new executives by 40% saving the corporation 4.6 million dollars. Onboarding city mangers and other city officials is a missing link in effective city management. I am working on it!!
