FRIDAYAGENDA

FRIDAY, AUGUST 24Speed Networking Breakfast for Municipal Officials 8:00 a.m. – Grand Ballroom E

Facilitator: Christian Price, Mayor, Maricopa, Treasurer, League of Arizona Cities and Towns

Join your fellow city and town elected officials and staff in a speed networking breakfast. Each participant will get one minute to share an issue that she/he is facing in their own community or on their council. Your issue can be big or small. Once you have shared your issue, everyone at the table will get one minute to share their initial impressions/reaction. Then the facilitator will announce a table change. Everyone will move to a different table based on a number sequence that avoids redundancy in the small groups. Participants can choose to use the same challenge/issue because your audience will have changed, or you may pose a new challenge to the group.

This session is designed to give you multiple ideas on to deal with an issue in your community as well as introduce you to new colleagues throughout the state.
