About the Managers Coaching Program
This
program is a joint effort of the
Managers Roundtable and the Government
Training Institute of the Mid-America Regional Council.
An advisory committee made up of local government officals helped shape the program and will continue to monitor the program's effectiveness.
The Managers Coaching Program goals are to:
- Support the professional and personal development of new and aspiring managers in local governments.
- Encourage an atmosphere of mentoring and coaching in all levels of the local government management profession.
- Provide successful managers a personally rewarding opportunity to share their expertise effectively and efficiently.
Future Initiatives and Resources
Once the coaching program has been successfully inaugurated the program will explore additional activities such as networking and seminar opportunities.
This program is modeled on the California ICMA Coaching Program. A resource of theirs that you might find useful is their e-coach where a panel of managers responds to questions from aspiring managers. All of the responses are posted online.
