The Strategic Planning Task Force has identified and discussed the forces and drivers affecting (1) local government and our communities and (2) our profession. We're looking for your input on those thoughts.

Topics

The task force has described the top forces affecting local governments and communities as being:

• public trust (or distrust)

• the cost of service delivery

• changing demographics (such as aging, diversity, population trends)

• social integration needs and challenges (this includes issues such as equity, diversity, racial tensions, inclusion)

What’s your take? Are these the top forces?

• the need to fill the pipeline with future professional local government managers

What’s your take? Are these the top forces?
