People

The ALN is very fortunate to have Organizational Members led by people like 
Christina Benty
, former Mayor of Golden, British Columbia and currently President, Strategic Leadership Solutions. Ms. Benty wrote a 
LinkedIn Post
 with concise thoughts about asset management’s role in society that is so clear we are quoting directly from it. “
Our civic leaders are in the best position to build connections among residents and model positive patterns of relating to one another based on mutual responsibility and ownership. They have the platform and the authority to create opportunities that foster dialogue to enable communities to address challenges together.

“How can they co-create solutions with their community? 

“I offer that the answer to this question isn’t solely on them, it’s on all of us.”


Also, listen to a 2-part Municipal World podcast with Ms. Benty that addresses 
the warning signs of a toxic workplace environment, how to avoid it, and where asset management comes into play.
