Free Coaching Webinar: Managing Council/Staff Relationships in an Election Year

Politics and government go hand in hand, you cannot have a democratic election without political discussions on the current issues of the time. We all see these issues differently based on our viewpoints. Managers typically make decisions based on data and facts, while politicians might make decisions based on connections to constituent groups or ideological views.

The differences in how administrators and policymakers interact are even more heightened during an election year. Join us on May 18, for a 90-minute webinar to hear the perspectives of a city/county manager and a council member, and learn how ICMA’s Code of Ethics keeps our members on the ethical high ground during a time when our political values are identified with our moral values.
