Are you a U.S. Municipal HR DIRECTOR interested in surrounding yourself with peers who are willing and anxious to serve each other?
This is a unique opportunity to grow you, strengthen service to your city and its leadership, and create high(er) performing teams.
If you are a CITY MANAGER who believes your HR DIRECTOR might benefit from this experience and you’re happy to invest in their growth, please forward this to them. This is a 100% virtual and online group, making it convenient for all participants.
NOW FORMING THE 4TH (and final) Municipal HR Director COHORT to be launched in July 2025. 4 spots remaining open! Cohorts #2 and #3 in Texas were finalized a few weeks ago and consist of no more than five directors and me.
Our podcast, Growgreat.com – A City Government Leadership Podcast, has listeners in many states, including Texas. Interest outside the state of Texas has surfaced, so I’ve decided to open this final HR Cohort to other states.
Completing the application does not obligate you, but it will prompt us to schedule a 30-minute Zoom conversation to determine if this opportunity aligns with your interests and needs.
Lisa got a text that prompted a conversation about what to do when failure appears to be the only option. Most of us have experienced situations and circumstances – sometimes beyond our control – that give us pause, making us wonder if there’s any way forward. Lisa and I discuss this, hoping to encourage you to figure out the answer to the question.
Rosters change. Sometimes for the better. Sometimes not.
How do you navigate the loss of a great teammate?
How do you handle the addition of a new teammate?
Adaptability may be chief among the leadership skills needed in our organization. The faster you can figure out how to manage your team’s changes, the better.
Lisa and I admit we had to learn this skill. In my 20s, 30s, and 40s, it was almost impossible to step away and recharge. Not because I felt indispensable, but because I was in full-chase mode. As an admitted stress junkie, I leaned heavily into the rush of being a leader and operator. Experience brought about maturity in that realm of my leadership. But it wasn’t easy to figure it out.
Hopefully, today’s discussion can fuel you to invest more in yourself to be more valuable and impactful in your leadership.
