Three sessions. One clear purpose.

Finding Your Why
Reconnect with the values and experiences behind your leadership. Articulate a purpose that stays grounded through criticism, complexity, and competing demands.

Communicating Your Why
Translate your purpose into clear messaging. Connect your record, current work, and future vision in a story that builds trust with different audiences.

From past participants
As a current Mayor I found the session very worthwhile. While considering if I would run again this term it provided opportunity to reflect on the original reason I chose to run for office and if my reasons had changed.
This workshop series can help you focus your efforts and more clearly define your platform to your constituents. It's a confidence builder for anyone who is unsure.
