What is Life, Well Run? 
Raise awareness of and appreciation for the 
value professional managers bring to building 
effective local government and communities 
we’re proud to call home.
But, what is a professional local government manager? 
A professional local government manager is an 
executive or administrator hired to oversee the 
operations of a city, town, or county. 
Professional managers: 
• are trained in the business of managing 
government and its resources. 
• maintain political neutrality and put the overall 
welfare of the community first. 
• bring a community-wide perspective to 
policies and programs.
A local government manager… 
4 
A manager’s responsibilities vary from 
community to community but they include: 
• Working with elected officials (mayors, city, town, and county 
councils) to develop policies and programs 
• Managing government staff, budgets, programs, and projects 
• Coordinating service delivery, such as police, fire, sanitation, 
street repairs, and upkeep of parks 
• Including all community members and interests in the decision 
making process 
• Ensuring that laws and policies are enforced fairly throughout 
the community and that the government runs ethically and 
transparently

The Situation 
7 
• Baby boomers that comprise the majority of 
local government managers approach 
retirement at a quickening pace, and statistics 
indicate that the greatest numbers of retirees 
will come from the managerial ranks. 
• A much smaller group of young and career 
changing professionals are in line and 
prepared to fill their shoes. There just aren't 
enough people.
The path to professional local government management 
8 
• 67% of local government managers have 
MPA or other master’s degrees 
• As undergraduates, that’s a good next step. 
• In the mean time, look for undergraduate 
internships and check out our website at
