Introducing: The Municipal Leadership Development Circle (MLDC) - Save 50% During Launch Phase
Every week, you’ll get insights and actionable steps to help you navigate personal growth and professional success.
In the quiet moments between council meetings and community crises, we’ve captured something special: a celebration of municipal leadership wrapped in holiday tradition. Today, we’re excited to present a unique tribute to city managers in two formats: an immersive audio experience on the HaltingWinter Podcast and a beautifully crafted PDF keepsake.
When everyone else has gone home for the holidays, city managers remain vigilant, ensuring their communities continue to thrive. This reimagining of the classic “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas” honors that dedication, transforming municipal service into holiday magic. From neighborhood concerns to late-night emergencies, this poem captures the essence of local government leadership with a festive twist.
Listen to the Story: Episode 129 of The HaltingWinter Podcast brings this municipal Christmas tale to life through narration.
Download the PDF: Our professionally designed PDF version serves as a lasting reminder of municipal leadership’s impact.
In local government, the holiday season doesn’t mean operations pause. This piece recognizes those who maintain our communities while others celebrate – the true spirit of public service wrapped in seasonal charm.
Know a city manager, department head, or municipal leader who could use some holiday encouragement? Forward them this celebration of their dedication.
From our office to your city hall, thank you for your unwavering commitment to public service. Here’s to the leaders who, like the poem’s protagonist, ensure our communities thrive through every season.
