Local leadership has never been more important. Local government continues to lead the response to some of the biggest challenges in our history, and councillors have a hugely challenging yet rewarding role serving and representing their communities.
To support councillors with their development and role in their communities, the LGA (Local Government Association) has developed a Local Leadership Framework for Councillors. This practical resource, informed by engagement with elected members, includes suggestions, prompts and further resources to help councillors to think about their skills and development.
This session will introduce attendees to the Local Leadership Framework for Councillors and discuss how it can be used in a practical way to help councillors further develop their skills and knowledge as local leaders. Attendees will also hear of the wider support offer that the LGA is delivering for councillors, enhancing local leadership across the country.
The webinar is particularly suitable for council officers who support councillors working in Democratic Services and of particular interest to those working in member development.
The webinar aims to:
- Provide an insight into the importance of local leadership for councillors in the current context, from a currently elected councillor
- Increase participant’s awareness and understanding of the LGA’s Local Leadership Framework for Councillors
- Increase participant’s understanding of how the Local Leadership Framework can be applied in their councils, to support the development of elected members
- Increase participant’s knowledge of the wider support available to councillors from the LGA
Our speakers are Poonam Mistry and Will Oldham from the Local Government Association and Cllr Neil Prior, Cabinet Member for Corporate Improvement and Communities at Pembrokeshire County Council, a Unitary Authority in Wales.
