May 5-10, 2024
Harbour House Hotel, Salt Spring Island
A partnership between Capilano University and the LGMA
Management and supervisory excellence in local government demands more than a thorough knowledge of a specialist field. It also requires leadership competencies such as the ability to inspire, coach, foster cooperation, and manage conflict. Equally vital is the need to successfully navigate human resource skills – from attracting, acquiring, and retaining talent, performance leadership planning that drives high performance, coaching and effectively managing and addressing performance challenges, while ensuring staff are engaged, feel valued, and have a sense of belonging.
