Over the past thirty-plus years I have worked for and with municipalities on a myriad of projects small and large, from the efficiency and responsiveness of organizational day to day operations to transformational initiatives that alter the physical or social well being of a community. I have been passionate in my commitment to confront the task put before me; and always willing to strategically consider alternative and innovative methods of problem solving designed through tactical research. My method has generally been to utilize collaboration and consensus building to reach a desired outcome depending upon the perspective and expertise of others to build the best possible long term outcome. But, in the end I have been willing to lead through making the final decision of how to proceed, and then effectively presenting that decision to gain the support necessary to achieve success.Specialties and Expertise• Municipal Law and Process• Economic and Community Development• Building High Performing Organizations• Government Relations and Advocacy• Public Finance• Social Innovation• Public Policy • Tactical Research and Solutions• Strategic Analysis and Counsel• Public-Private Partnerships• Collaborative Decision-Making• Media and Public Relations• Public Infrastructure• Community Sustainability• Personnel Recruitment and Management • Process Improvement • Community Engagement• Vision Articulation
