The AMCTO Leadership Hub is an all-new collection of leadership resources and services now available to AMCTO members. This centralized platform connects you with trusted affinity partners committed to supporting your leadership journey in the municipal sector. Our partners offer specialized programs, tools, and services that empower you to lead confidently and navigate the complexities of municipal management.
Leadership Hub affinity partners include:
- Inside Public Sector Leadership (IPSL) — an organization dedicated to helping experienced and emerging leaders learn from conversations between current former public sector leaders, politicians, academics and media experts about how to navigate the unwritten rules of Canadian public sector leadership. IPSL offers full and accelerator courses designed to inspire excellence, develop political acumen, and build resilient leadership in the public sector. Among their roster of instructors are well-respected municipal sector leaders: Gary Kent, Bev Hendry, Brian Lambie, and more.
- Conquer Leadership (CNQR) — a leadership development, team engagement, and coaching company founded by Parm Chohan, MCM. Parm works with aspiring and established leaders to optimize peak performance and personal growth. Parm's extensive involvement within the sector includes supporting clients with management portfolios at some of Ontario's largest municipalities: the Region of Peel, Town of Caledon, and more.
- StrategyCorp — a professional services firm that brings together the disciplines of management consulting, public affairs, and communications. StrategyCorp specializes in providing strategic advisory services to public sector organizations operating in complex, highly regulated, and scrutinized environments. The firm's municipal services practice, led by Sabine Matheson, provides municipal clients with the knowledge and direction necessary to address large-scale, common municipal challenges.
Through this unique affinity partnership, all AMCTO members are eligible to receive a 20% discount on select IPSL courses and CNQR services. Members can also take advantage of one free 30-45-minute consultation with a participating StrategyCorp senior advisor.
As part of the 2022-2026 AMCTO Strategic Plan, providing members with valuable professional growth and networking opportunities is a top priority. With the launch of this new Leadership Hub affinity program, we are proud to provide additional spaces for leadership development and executive-level leadership support.
"Through our State of the Membership survey and other feedback, members have continued to recognize AMCTO as an organization that fosters and supports municipal sector leadership. This new Leadership Hub gives members the tools they need to address today's unique municipal challenges and opportunities — all in one place and at a special, discounted rate. Thank you to our Leadership Hub partners for collaborating with us to equip members with the tools and ongoing support to be successful."
