One of my good friends lives in Germany, and they make gingerbread houses in December – and I’m curious, who else has a holiday tradition like this? We’ve all heard of elf on the shelf – what do you do to celebrate the holiday energy? The joy is in the process (and all that yummy gingerbread!) - so I’m thinking it’s time to get messy, get creative, and let the icing flow like it’s the holiday season—because it is! Just like in sales, it’s all about building the right foundation, adding your personal flair, and knowing when to sweeten the deal. So, who’s ready to unleash their inner architect and create something deliciously successful this season? I’ll show you mine if you show me yours!

🎃 How being a village manager has helped me manage things at home: 🎃 Halloween edition 🎃 🎃 We love jack-o-lanterns in our house. My girls (8 and 6) always have big ideas about what they want them to look like (like our councils/community stakeholders), but don’t quite have the ability to create the outcome they’re visioning. Cue dad/village manager. 🎃 Start with the vision (in this case, getting ideas down on paper). No idea is too outrageous in the visioning stage, though I’m always assessing viability. 🎃 Next, build ownership and engagement through refining the ideas (in this case, that meant mediating a *few* arguments about how many eyelashes and which eye should be the winking eye). This is where practicality enters the picture as we consider the inputs needed to execute. 🎃 Before executing, build concensus around the final plan (in this case, this also requires reengaging my 6 year old who wanted to move on to other things, not unlike the battle to maintain engagement with stakeholders frustrated things are taking too long). Shouts of “this is going to be SO COOL” can be heard from dad to keep morale up, not unlike my role as village manager. 🎃 The plan now finalized, commence the process of getting the work done (detailed plans transferred to the pumpkins themselves (RFP and bidding), appropriate tools laid out and readily at hand (financial and staff resources), watchful oversight leading to solid carving technique (build it!)). The outcome will reflect the unique qualities of our thoughtful, local-focused vision! 🎃 Enjoy the outcome of a thoughtful process, with minimal angst and maximized community engagement. (Hoping to have the trick-or-treaters “oooh” and “ahhh” as they walk up on Halloween!) 🎃 Moral of the story: principles of professional management build better outcomes! 🎃 Happy Halloween! #halloween #localgov #citymanagement #homelife
