Sunday November 14 the Ashland Climate Action Project of SOCAN and Local Innovation Works will host a moderated discussion: Community-Driven Leadership. Stephen Bárczay Sloan of the Humane Leadership Institute will moderate Ashland’s Mayor Julie Akins and Interim City Manager Gary Milliman.
Background:
Ashland has a long tradition of rising to challenges with intelligence, creativity, and vision. How can we reignite this positive energy and capacity for visionary leadership within our community? How can we, as citizens, participate positively and constructively to address the city issues that matter most? Join us for a special wide-ranging Sunday evening discussion. We’ll explore how residents can best work with city staff and local elected officials to help identify and drive forward with solutions. We’ll sharpen up on both the practical how-to’s of civic engagement in Ashland, as well as the broader issue of how we can all work to strengthen leadership capacity in the community itself.
