It’s a wrap for this year’s Local Government Challenge 🙌 I’m proud to have been a finalist, and thrilled for our worthy winner Faith Scott Deuchar 🌟 👀 Watch the beautifully put-together recap of the 6 month programme here https://lnkd.in/ehr4v7Fh 🚀 It has given a terrific bunch of future leaders a real leg-up in the industry, and the ripple effects will be long-lasting. 💥I learned so much- from the other members of my cohort, the dynamic leaders we’ve been exposed to and the different councils we visited all over the country. We worked hard.. but it has been an absolute blast! 💡It has also been heartening to hear back from some of these councils on the effect that our input has had on their work. 🫶Thank you to the wonderful LGA team for all your support throughout Michael Barrett Virginia Ponton Viola Owembabazi 🙏A huge thank you also to Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council for this development opportunity. 👉Applications are now open for next year’s, fully funded programme! #LGChallenge #localgovernment #leadershipdevelopment
