I’VE NEVER BEEN TO A PUBLIC WORKSHOP—WHAT IS IT LIKE?

Known for his expertise in special districts, public agencies, nonprofits, and small businesses, Mr. Ives is passionate about helping organizations lay a strong foundation for future success.

He will begin the workshop with an engaging presentation, outlining the event’s structure and highlighting key topics of discussion before transitioning into an interactive and collaborative session designed to gather the community’s insights and experiences.
WHY DO WE NEED THIS?
The purpose of this workshop is to collect invaluable input that will help forge a robust strategic plan, empowering the WCSD to operate with clear intent, direction, and measurable outcomes. This initiative aims to enhance public service and strengthen community impact. Mr. Ives will compile the community’s feedback from the workshop to help shape the foundation and develop a strategic plan, one that outlines the WCSD’s mission, vision, and long-term goals while providing a structured framework for achieving desired results. The strategic plans will not only guide the organization in effectively applying for grants but also facilitate coordination with other governmental entities, ultimately creating a stronger and more resilient Wrightwood community.
