Small water systems in Alabama, and across the country, are struggling to recruit and keep experienced staff. What will happen when your utility’s long-term operator or manager retires? Who knows all that they know? This workshop will focus on succession planning, operator recruitment, embracing multiple generations in the workplace, and staff retention strategies. We will discuss links between workforce development, system sustainability and long-term planning.

Presenters: Tonya Bronleewe, Program Manager & Leslie Kimble, Marketing Coordinator, Wichita State University Environmental Finance Center

Who should attend: City council and rural water district board members, mayors, city managers/administrators, city clerks, HR staff, finance directors, public works directors and water utility managers.
