Chief Executives Meeting
The League's Chief Executives Meeting is a focused, high-impact gathering designed exclusively for municipal chief executives across Wisconsin.
This small-format program creates space for candid conversation, strategic thinking, and peer connection among leaders who share similar responsibilities, pressures, and opportunities.
Depth over breadth—meaningful engagement, tough questions, and complex challenges explored alongside trusted peers.
Unlike larger conferences, the Chief Executives Meeting prioritizes an environment where participants can engage meaningfully, ask tough questions, and explore complex challenges alongside trusted peers.
The Value of Stepping Away
Leadership in local government is demanding—and often isolating. The Chief Executives Meeting offers a rare opportunity to step back from day-to-day responsibilities, reflect on your role, and engage with peers who understand the weight of the work.
It's not just time away—it's time well spent.
