The Local Government Leadership Academy’s 2016 Leadership Forum will be held February 3-5, 2016 at the Radisson Hotel Vancouver Airport.
Since our first forum in 2007, the LGLA’s annual conference has been well received by elected officials and senior administrators from BC local governments and First Nations communities. All those with an interest in leadership at the local level will benefit from attendance, including those working towards an LGLA Certificate.
Our theme for 2016 is Respectful Leadership, and delegates can expect a full program guaranteed to inform and inspire. Join us for an exciting keynote, practical sessions addressing an array of current issues and concerns, interesting panel discussions, ample networking opportunities and the excellent hospitality of the Radisson Hotel in the heart of downtown Richmond.
