COMMITTEE REPORT

9/12/2018 1

Committee Name: Leadership & Management Committee Chair: Michael Wodalski

Executive & Technical Committee Meeting Date: 9/12/2018

Committee Emphasis/Goals:

To provide direction and motivation to the membership to foster qualities of effective leadership

and management within the profession. A key initiative is the Emerging Public Works Leaders

Program.

Notes from Most Recent Meeting: Attached

Emerging Leaders Program: I'm waiting on the write-ups from the two emerging leaders this year.

They enjoyed the experience at PWX and were glad they were able to go. I will be putting

together a newsletter article about both of them as well.

Suggested Conference Session Topics: (rank by priority. Include speaker name if available)

1. Integrating GIS and Workflow for better Infrastructure Management (Speaker: Chris Tippery

from Symbiont - they provide this service and Chris is the Co-Chair of the L&M Committee)

2. Public Works Accreditation (perhaps someone from Janesville would want to discuss their

journey?) - Is there a way to possibly setup a chapter Accreditation team to help other

communities meet their goals?

3. Lean Operations Management for Public Works (Speaker: Michael Wodalski - My master's

thesis focused on utilizing Lean Techniques in the Delivery of Transportation Infrastructure

Projects and I also helped develop the Lean Construction Class at UW-Madison. Just wanted to

let you know where my credentials are at on that topic)

As a Committee we also talked about what topics we may be interested in and here is what was

brought up:

- Difference between being a Leader and a Manager.

- Hiring practices: How to promote from within.

- The differences between small and big communities and how the role of DPW changes.

(Perhaps a panel discussion on this?)

Chapter Activity Report Template

2018 Summer Council of Chapter Meeting

Wisconsin Chapter (Region V)

Report of Activities, Best Practices, and Areas of Focus January 2018 – Present

MEMBERSHIP & CHAPTERS

• Membership counts/activity since January o At the end of January, membership stood at 783 members. At the end of July,

the count was 788. Wisconsin was one of 35 Chapters within all of APWA to sustain a positive gain in membership. Wisconsin membership has been steady to slightly increasing for some time now.

o Many activities occurred in this time frame, both to sustain and serve existing members and promote new membership – see below under “Activities”.

• Chapter Updates o The Chapter completed a survey of membership early in the year and is using

responses as part of updating our 5 year Strategic Plan. A committee has been formed and continues work on the proposed update.

o The Chapter selected 2 Emerging Leaders to sponsor in the National Program and send to PWX.

o The Chapter finished the fiscal year with a $20,000 surplus. The President directed the Past Presidents Committee to come up with a financial policy for the Chapter, given our strong financial standing and our charter as a non-profit organization.

o The Chapter withdrew from a planned joint Conference with the Wisconsin League of Municipalities, scheduled for 2019. It was felt more time was needed to properly address the needs of our membership. Discussions will continue with the League on a possible future joint venture.

• Chapter Capacity On a scale of 1-10 (10 being the highest) please rate the following: 1. How active is your chapter? (ex: we are doing things weekly, monthly, quarterly)

o We are active at a rating of about an 8 to 9. We have multiple activities in any given month and multiple initiatives ongoing at all times.

2. How engaged are your members?

The percentage of members engaged or fully engaged is not as high as we would like it to be. We have about 30 to 50 members very engaged and a good turnout of a large number of members at our Spring and Fall conferences. Committee participation could be better. Overall I would rate this about 6. Recently a financial planning item was referred to our Past Presidents Committee. Eleven Past Presidents have accepted the meeting, showing a pretty good engagement of Past Presidents.

3. What level is your chapter capacity running at? (ex: we have room for more, we can’t do another thing!)

Page 20: EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE & TECHNICAL COMMITTEE CHAIR …wisconsin.apwa.net/Content/Chapters/wisconsin.apwa.net/File/Execu… · EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE & TECHNICAL COMMITTEE CHAIR MEETING

o We are running at about an 8. Given we operate without a Chapter Administrator and all work is by volunteers, we maintain a very healthy capacity. The capacity could grow if we had higher or better member engagement.

• Best Practice/New and Innovative Ideas o Tuition Reimbursement o Student Scholarship Program o Diversified Activities for Members o Specific Continuing Education for members sufficient to satisfy Professional

Continuing Education requirements

• Chapter Key Issue(s) o Growing the engagement of more members and younger members

• Areas of Focus/Challenge o Growing the engagement of more members and younger members o Formulating an overall Chapter Financial Policy o Continuing providing quality and meaningful education for our membership o Increasing Committee participation o Getting the Advocacy arm of our Chapter up and running

VALUE

• NPWW Activities

o The Wisconsin Chapter received a Governor Proclamation declaring Public

Works Week in Wisconsin.

o At least one member Municipality had an event to celebrate NPWW.

McFarland held their 2nd Annual Public Works Open House, well attended and

always popular with the children.

• Awards

o The Chapter received several awards this year: ▪ PACE Award ▪ Top Ten (Paul Woodard) ▪ POY Award (Wausau Riverfront) ▪ Excellence in Snow & Ice Control (City of Milwaukee)

• Community Outreach

o The Wisconsin Chapter participated in the “Future City” competition, where 70

Wisconsin Middle Schools worked on STEM projects. The Chapter donated

$1,000 for one of the specific competitions and supplied 4 Chapter members as

judges and a 5th Chapter member who had oversight of the entire judging

program.

o The Wisconsin Chapter collected $440 at the Spring Conference in May and

donated it to the Wisconsin Children’s Hospital in Green Bay.

• Chapter Activities

Page 21: EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE & TECHNICAL COMMITTEE CHAIR …wisconsin.apwa.net/Content/Chapters/wisconsin.apwa.net/File/Execu… · EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE & TECHNICAL COMMITTEE CHAIR MEETING

o Many activities occurred in this time frame, both to sustain and serve existing members and promote new membership. These included:

▪ An ice fishing event on 2/16/2018 ▪ Spring Conference and Awards Banquet, Green Bay, May 2 thru 4 ▪ A YP event at the start of the Spring Conference in Green Bay on

5/2/2018. ▪ A Brewer’s Game with the Chicago Metro Chapter on 6/13/2018,

hosted by our YP Committee ▪ Another Fishing outing on 6/15/2018 ▪ A Summer Golf Outing and Paddle event on 7/19/2018. The event

raised approximately $3500 for scholarships and promotes introduction to potential new members.

VOICE

• Advocacy Efforts

o The Chapter is working on getting a more defined and active Advocacy

Program

EDUCATION & CREDENTIALING

• Does your chapter partner with anyone for your education programs? If so, who and for

how many events?

o The UW-Madison, Engineering Professional Development Department,

partners with the Wisconsin Chapter to lead 2 Public Works Certificates: the

Public Works Supervisory Academy (PWSA) Certificate, composed of 9 one-day

classes (54 class hours in total); and the Public Works Management Institute

(PWMI) Certificate, composed of 15 classes (90 class hours total) including the

9 courses in PWSA, plus an additional 36 class hours in 5 courses that focus on

more advanced management.

It is my understanding that we are to forward Top Ten Public Works Leader Award nominations to the Executive Committee for their consideration at the September meeting in order for the candidate to work on the application to submit it on time. We received nominations from Paul Woodard that included four persons. The committee discussed the nominations and decided to the forward the following two persons for consideration (in no particular order).   Scott Brandmeier – He is active in the Chapter, past Treasurer and currently on the EC Board and will be Chapter President in 2021. He is very involved nationally with advocacy and has been to DC countless times with National meeting with Congress. He was in the Emerging leaders program. He is also involved in his community and church. Paul indicated that an interesting side note is that he is a lawyer as well. Paul believes that he would be a strong candidate.   Paula Vandehey, Director of Public Works in Appleton. She has hosted the conference a few times. We do not have her credentials, so some input is needed. She has been in Appleton for a long time and would be a diverse candidate. I am sure she has done a lot in Appleton.
