The Human Infrastructure


Leading a municipality today isn’t just about budgets, bylaws, and infrastructure—it’s about people.


In the past decade alone, the role of local leaders has transformed dramatically. The pace of social media, the complexity of intergovernmental relationships, and the growing expectations of communities have created a new reality for municipal councils and administrators. The mental load on local leaders has never been heavier, and the need for strong communication, collaboration, and personal resilience has never been greater.


That’s where the Human Infrastructure Symposium comes in.


This new initiative is focused on strengthening the “common ground” that holds our region together. By breaking down silos between municipalities, encouraging mutual support, and prioritizing mental health and effective communication, the symposium aims to equip municipal leaders with the tools they need to build healthy, connected, and high-performing communities.


It’s a shift in focus—from spreadsheets and policy documents to the human side of governance. Whether you’re newly elected or a seasoned municipal leader, the symposium promises a day of learning, insight, and meaningful connection with peers who are navigating the same challenges.


To explore what the Human Infrastructure Symposium is all about—and why it matters now more than ever—we’re joined today by Tyler Gandam. ------ Purchase Your Tickets Today: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-human-infrastructure-tickets-1980120853777
