Serving in local government is rewarding and also challenging! Do you wish you had a trusted, objective partner to help you brainstorm creative solutions to sticky problems, bounce ideas off of, get solid advice from, or just vent a little – in a completely safe space? Whether you need a confidant, a mentor, or an advisor, VLCT's Municipal Operations Specialist, Kathleen Ramsay, can be your wingwoman. Schedule one-on-one time to discuss topics such as:
- The opportunities and challenges you face in your municipal role, from work/life balance to wicked problems.
- The idea of adding administrative staff to support the legislative body. Together you can noodle through the benefits vs. costs, how to introduce this idea to the public, the logistics of bringing on a new employee, how all of this might be accomplished even for a small town, etc.
- Ways to turn your big ideas into action.
- Advice on how to model and practice healthy civil discourse in your municipality.
- And much, much more.
Regardless of what brings you to Kathleen's "door," you will find answers or potential solutions, and even share a few laughs!
