We are thrilled to announce the recent graduation of three esteemed members of our staff from the IPS Leadership Academy. Heather Duncan, County Government Consultant; Laylah Smith, Legal Consultant; and Kelley McNeal, CCFO Training Consultant, have successfully completed this prestigious program, demonstrating their commitment to professional growth and excellence in public service.

The IPS Leadership Academy, a highly regarded program offered by the University of Tennessee, is designed to develop leaders who are equipped to tackle the challenges of today’s complex and ever-changing public sector environment. The program provides participants with advanced leadership skills, strategic thinking capabilities, and a deeper understanding of organizational dynamics.

Heather and Laylah attended the graduation ceremony held in Knoxville on August 31st, celebrating their achievements alongside fellow graduates. Unfortunately, Kelley was unable to attend the ceremony. However, her dedication and hard work throughout the program have not gone unnoticed, and we celebrate her accomplishments with equal enthusiasm.
