Governments are at a crossroads.  To meet rising expectations with shrinking resources, they need to make a choice: cut services, increase the tax burden or pursue a more value-oriented agenda that will put them on the path to higher performance.  Fortifying your leadership capabilities is essential to translating the headwinds into a tailwind of improved organizational performance. 

The convergence of football and leadership has a glorious past and the Alliance for Innovation is pleased to announce the latest in a series of powerful and practical webinars, “Your Leadership Playbook.”  Designed and presented by Patrick Ibarra, a former city manager, and founder of the consulting practice, the Mejorando Group, this webinar uses football as the platform and includes a series of forward-thinking leadership practices guaranteed to help you lead your team to victory!

Participants will gain yards and move the chains by learning a series of synchronized leadership practices that propel their organization and workforce forward to the end zone:

1.    Develop principles of a forward-thinking Strategy (Game Plan)
2.    Identify and use the Five Practices of Great Leaders (Offense)
3.    Implement leading edge practices for effective execution of services (Xs and Os)
4.    Successfully use methods of managing employee performance (Play Calling)
5.    Use proven approaches to leading change  (Defense)
6.    Utilize techniques to develop future leaders (Team Players)
7.    How to foster a leadership culture (The Field)
8.    Pursue a leadership competency (Touchdown)
9.    Digitally engage the public (Fans)
