This two-hour session about vulnerability is a compressed look at the topic from the standpoint of a public service chief. An immediate misconception is that this is a soft topic for weak leaders. Quite the opposite is true. It is a focused look at the mindset and tools used while dealing with issues such as conflict resolution, innovation, high achievement, collaboration and cooperation, deployment of resources, and integration of service. One of the presentation goals will be to enable you to take full advantage the variety of skills, ability, and knowledge you possess and use for the betterment of your department and our system. 10:00 am - 11:00 am - Closing Sesssion 11 am – Concluding Remarks |
