Strengthening Response Muscles 2024 is a five-part executive leadership program designed for CSAC Institute alumni. As the national election cycle nears, so too does increased visibility for those in public service. Sometimes the visibility is desirable, supporting communities and good governance. However, rhetoric and misinformed positions can create environments of threats and intimidation to those who are simply doing their jobs. This program is designed to help elected county officials and senior executives bolster response approaches, creating space between the event and action. The program focuses largely on self-awareness and self-management, reinforcing disciplined techniques to exercise self-control and increase intentionality.
