Public Service Under Pressure with Kimberly Walton, Michael Jacobson, Tanisha Briley and Vince Micone

This week's episode of Management Matters with James-Christian Blockwood features key selections from a recent Academy Standing Panel. 

It is clear the federal government impacts local government, city and county leaders have always had to leverage federal resources, but can that continue given budget constraints and the increasingly partisan political environment? 

Panelists highlight the impact of federal decision-making on services to people in communities (and foreshadow that the pressure and consequences will soon be felt), raise important questions about the size of government and how budgets dictate policy, and suggests what changes and investments are needed going forward.

Tanisha Briley, City Manager, Gaithersburg, MD
Michael Jacobson, Deputy Director, King County Office of Performance Strategy & Budget, WA
Vince Micone, Former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Operations, Department of Labor
