When Joe Irvin took the helm as City Manager of South Lake Tahoe in May 2020, he faced an extraordinary challenge. Tourism revenue had plummeted from over $1 million to under $50,000 a month, his staff was working remotely, and he had to build relationships with a team he could barely meet in person. But this wasn’t the first time Irvin had embraced a challenge in South Lake Tahoe.

In our latest episode of The HaltingWinter Podcast, Irvin shares his remarkable journey from entrepreneurial college student selling snowboard wax to leading one of California’s most unique cities. His story offers valuable insights for any municipal leader grappling with organizational change, crisis management, or work-life integration.
