Every community is faced with the
challenge of having more needs and priorities than its resources can address.
Not only are there too many priorities, but Council, staff and the community
often have very different ideas as to what is most important.
Add to this the uncertainty created
by constantly changing Federal and Provincial government roles and
responsibilities and the challenge facing local governments can seem insurmountable.
Johnson & Elligott provides a
Council-driven, practical approach to setting priorities, making trade-offs and
allocating resources for your community. In short, bringing efficiency and
effectiveness to the decision-making process.
By working with Johnson & Elligott,
Council will create a clear plan; will know where the budget is coming from
and where it is going; and will have an ongoing framework for Council, staff
and the community to work together to identify challenges and agree on how they will be addressed.
Ours is not an academic approach.
What we propose has been done successfully before. It works. We have
done it. And we can help you do the same.
We will personally meet with you to
design a strategic leadership program for your community and will continue
working with you throughout the process. The program is tailored to the specific
challenges facing your community and designed to the individual needs of your
Council and staff.
