This section focuses on the Gilbert style of leadership. If you’re not an “official” leader yet, that’s okay, you can still read ahead! Some of the best leaders don’t have rank, direct reports, or fancy titles.

Creating a Purposeful Work Experience

As a leader, the most important thing you do for those “in our charge” is to create a work experience that is meaningful and fulfilling. Gilbert is full of public servants who love this community and have dedicated their lives to serving others. They deserve to feel connected to the impact they make every day, and you have the ability to make that happen! Your job is to create that feeling of purpose for your team.

Our leadership development program is called “Purposeful Leadership” for this reason. You’ll learn more about that when you click on the “Purposeful Leadership” link below. It’s a whole big deal.
