I just arrived in Zürich where I will speak at the Beyond Budgeting Round Table conference tomorrow. Very much looking forward to hearing about cases at Roche, Caritas and Handelsbanken! I will share some lessons learned from various agile transformation attempts that I have experienced over the last years and foresee an interesting dialogue on Beyond Budgeting as a critical success factor for agility. Stay tuned! #beyondbudgeting #ekanmanagement

Let's conduct a simple test to see if I am wrong. Several ICMA members have told me something that I think is incredibly naive. They believe they can change the organization from within. But how can you change the ICMA - International City/County Management Association from within when the entire process of electing members to the executive board is rigged? Every candidate is handpicked by the establishment and they get to run unopposed! OK -- let's put that aside for a moment and work on something smaller and much easier to accomplish. Let's talk about the ICMA's selection of host cities for their annual conference. Here is the list: https://lnkd.in/djDrgSiZ As the president of the American Association of Municipal Executives, I am officially declaring that all future conferences will be held in cities with a council-manager form of government. If you are a member of the ICMA and think the organization that supposedly exists to promote the council-manager form of government should host their events in cities that actually have city managers -- demand change. Prove me wrong! Demand that Marc Ott and the ICMA executive board only hold events in council-manager cities after the 2024 annual conference. If you can't change something this easy and reasonable -- how do you expect to change anything else? ----- No organization exists to defend and advocate for the city or county manager as a professional. That is -- until now! If you are a public sector executive, you are invited to become a founding member of the American Association of Municipal Executives. Join today at: AAME.org

Great to be part of this Panel discussion at the #MEW2024 event in Swansea. Key points from my perspective, with a particular focus on The Crown Estate Round 5 process. - We already know lots about key consenting issues. We just need to access and apply this learning in a sensible and pragmatic way. - For existing and future key issues, strategic level studies should be the primary mechanism to resolve them (whilst recognising that project-level studies will also play a key role). - Collaboration is key. From optimising stakeholder engagement to methods of data collection to approaches to assessment.
