2015 LEAD Program Presentation
February 28th – March 6th Program Date
LEAD is run at the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business Administration and its executive training complex
The training is completed during an intensive one week program starting on Saturday afternoon and ending on Friday afternoon with graduation
To take our communities confidently into the future, public leaders and executives must adopt a proactive approach to change both inside the public organization and outside in the community. They must invest the time and resources required for themselves and their leadership team to create and maintain a continuously improving, learning organization.
2015 LEAD Program Presentation
The purpose for the attendance in this program is to develop a culture in which the new team members that are hired throughout our organization, are fully engaged with our core values of: Adaptability Respect Service Communication
“Lead by making others powerful”
Other Management training courses that are available in Wisconsin: UW CPM program UW Public Works Supervisory Academy Leadership Development Academy While these programs have their own unique
training methods and scope, they differ in the fact that LEAD is focused on High Performance Organizations, which is not solely about Management in its traditional form
“Leadership is teamwork, not solo work”
LEAD Course Overview: Main Areas of Focus
Leadership styles Team building Management strategies Creative management Communication skills Action plan development
High Performance Organization (HPO) Continuous learning community Democratic values
“Include others in the journey of possibility”
Lessons Learned: We must engage our team members and community Our greatest assets are our employees Utilize a networked talent model to gain efficiency We cannot be effective until we know what drives
our team members When people are participants, we will see a more
involved workforce A high performance organization has a well defined
set of core values
“Enroll every voice in the vision”
Total Cost of Program: Course tuition - $ 3,850.00
Includes meals, lodging and instructional materials
Travel and supplemental lodging - $787.91 Total cost of program $ 4,637.91 per person
“ Removing barriers to Empowerment”
Value of the Program to the Individual: Helps to understand our role in the division,
department and City Defines a process for the development of our
team members Provides tools to improve team performance
through a focus on skills, abilities and ideas Gives us a new perspective when engaging
our workforce to better understand what motivates them
“Each person has a signature leadership style, gifts, and role”
Value to the Division, Department, City: Builds upon the City Values Encourages non-traditional methods of leadership Utilizes each individual’s skills, abilities and ideas
and enhances job performance and efficiency Promotes greater interaction between all levels of
government Recognizes creation of a work culture that is
conducive to accomplishing our goals and values
“The Art of Leadership is about a new way of being, both individually and together”
Value to the Taxpayer: Develops better leaders within the City, who in
turn, better communicate more effectively with the community
Helps leaders balance different wants, needs and expectations among citizens
Promotes efficiency and effectiveness of City operations
Empowers leaders to adjust to a changing environment
Quiet the inner voice that says “I can’t”
Conclusions: Since 2001, 34 City of Janesville employees
have attended LEAD We must continue to engage our workforce if we
want to be effective and improve the value of services provided to the taxpayer
Strong leadership is required at all levels for the organization to be successful
We must continue to encourage and build a learning organization by promoting participation, growth and change
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader."- John Quincy Adams
