Council member Scott set for recognition by NLC this November

— San Marcos City Council Member Shane Scott will be recognized by the National League of Cities (NLC) for reaching the Bronze level in its Certificate of Achievement in Leadership program.

Sponsored by the NLC Leadership Training Institute (LTI), the award will be presented in Phoenix, AZ at the annual Congress of Cities Conference in November.

 To achieve the Bronze level, a local official must earn 16 credits encompassing all five core competency areas of the LTI curriculum, referred to as “Cornerstone,” “Competent Practitioner,” “Communicator,” “Collaborator” and “Catalyst.”

 Scott is one of the fewer than 808 NLC members to have reached the Bronze level in the Certificate of Achievement in Leadership program since its inception.

 NLC is committed to strengthening and promoting the leadership capacity of our nation’s local elected officials.  As part of the NLC mission to create stronger communities, the Leadership Training Institute provides local officials with the professional development opportunities to assist then in promoting positive change and innovation within their communities. At the same time, seminars are designed to explore the nature and practice of local governmental leadership.

 Each training seminar addresses one or more of the core areas of municipal leadership, including personal leadership growth and development, effective governance, effective communications, skills in developing and promoting partnerships and managing change.

 NLC’s Leadership Training Council established the Certificate of Achievement in Leadership program in 1999. The primary purpose of the program is to recognize and acknowledge excellence in leadership by NLC members.

 The National League of Cities is the nation’s oldest and largest organization devoted to strengthening and promoting cities as centers of opportunity, leadership and governance. NLC is a resource and advocate for 19,000 cities, towns and villages, representing more than 218 million Americans.
