In 2007, local government leaders contributed their views and experiences in a nationwide survey conducted by The Waters Consulting Group, Inc. (WCG), a national HR consulting and executive recruitment firm. The study, titled “A Gathering Storm: Succession Planning in the Public Sector,” provided valuable insights into the opinions and practices of chief administrative officers, city managers, department directors, and other local government professionals in leadership positions as they relate to succession planning in the public sector. 

In 2012, WCG is updating the study and would like to have your participation. In exchange for your input, we will provide you with the results of the updated report. Get more information about the survey.
