The ICMA Midwest Regional Summit is a networking and professional development opportunity for members and state officers in the Midwest. All ICMA members and state officers in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin are invited to attend the ICMA Midwest Regional Summit.
ICMA University Workshop
ICMA -- GREAT by CHOICE!
The Decade of Local Government and the Twenty Mile March
Join Bob O’Neill, ICMA executive director, and colleagues for a discussion of Jim Collins’ Twelve Questions for Leadership Teams as outlined at the 98th ICMA Annual Conference in Phoenix, Maricopa County/Arizona.
Among other issues we will ponder the concepts of:
- the twenty mile march,
- bullets to cannonballs,
- productive paranoia,
- increasing return on Luck, and
the application of these concepts to local government.
Participants should review the 12 Questions, read Great by Choice, and come ready for a conversation that includes examples of how they apply the ideas in Great by Choice to effective local governments today and in the next decade.
At the Midwest Regional meeting Bob will be joined by Mike Baker, deputy village manager, Downers Grove, IL, Milton Dohoney, city manager, Cincinnati, OH, Simon Farbrother, city manager, Edmonton, Canada, and Felicia Logan, ICMA director of leadership development, for a thought provoking and capacity building ICMA University workshop based on the work of Jim Collins and his book, Great by Choice.
