RAFTELIS FINANCIAL CONSULTANTS, INC. (#2025490)

RAFTELIS 2 In advance of the Council workshop, Nancy and Rod will interview each member of the City Council to obtain information that will help us prepare for the session. They will ask questions such as: What are some key accomplishments of the City over the past year? What are key challenges facing the City? top three to five priorities to address through City resources (budget, staff time)? How do you describe the roles of the City Council, Mayor, City Manager, and City Attorney? What do you view as the attributes of a highly effective Council/staff team? We will consolidate the feedback received and meet virtually with you to review the information. Activity 2: Prepare For and Facilitate City Council Workshop We will then design the Council workshop and prepare a slide deck and draft agenda, along with other handouts that will be helpful for the discussions. We have significant resources, such as best practice examples from other cities, that we will utilize to support the discussions. Possible agenda topics include (to be informed by Council interviews and discussions with you): Discussion of good governance practices, including norms, roles, and responsibilities Review of financial resources available for the coming year as context for discussion of priorities Discussion of interests of members of the Council regarding desired outcomes over the coming year Consensus on Council priorities for the upcoming two-year budget Nancy and Rod will review the draft materials with you and finalize them based on feedback received. We will coordinate workshop logistics with your staff, including room setup, supplies, and other needed items. The workshop will be designed in such a way as to facilitate open dialogue among members of Council, you, and others from your staff who will be present. During the session, the primary role of the facilitators is to ensure that the environment is respectful and conducive to open and constructive dialogue, so the established objectives are ultimately met. Within two weeks after the workshop, we will provide a summary report documenting the results. Activity 3: Provide Executive Coaching Raftelis will be pleased to provide executive coaching for the City Manager. Rod Gould will serve as Executive Coach. We have significant resources to assist with this, which includes creating a coaching plan and a series of coaching sessions.
