S3 Episode 4 - How Local Governments Can Nurture Respect between Civic Leaders and Citizens

  • Summary

  • Wesley and Kim speak to Diane Kalen Sukra about her experiences working with local leaders and the challenges she has experienced. She talks in detail about the rise of bullying and harrassing behavior in local government. Once a community finds itself in "Bullyville", the community's ability to communicate and collaborate is dramatically inhibited. In more extreme forms, this affects how vital public services are delivered.

    It is easy to feel there is no way out. But Diane talks about pathways to follow to return to an environment where vital public discourse can happen in the public arena. She discusses how culture isn't something just happens. It is something communities need to cultivate. She talks about how to build respect between civic leaders and citizens and how to foster a culture of self-governance in our communities.
