The workshop will be held in Perth on Monday 25 November 2019, from 9am to 4:30pm in the department's offices at 246 Vincent Street, Leederville. If you are an experienced Mayor or President and have a new Deputy, I would encourage you to bring them along.
Sessions will provide insight into topics such as managing council business (from chairing meetings and applying standing orders to handling public question time), liaising with the Chief Executive Officer, and working with the media. Presentations will also look at the demands of providing leadership, facilitating communication with the public, and meeting community expectations.
Presenters include Mayor Tracey Roberts of the City of Wanneroo, Hon. Cr Paul Omodei, President of the Shire of Manjimup, Mr Anthony Vuleta, Chief Executive Officer of the Town of Victoria Park, Assistant Auditor General Don Cunninghame and representatives from the department.
