Raftelis helps local governments thrive by providing management consulting expertise to help them create the change they seek. We’ve helped more than 600 local government organizations in the last year alone. We work in all areas of management consulting including: finance, assessment, communications, technology, executive recruitment, and strategic planning.
Succession planning is more important than ever to maintain effective services due to an aging workforce and strong private sector competition for local government agencies. A succession plan should identify critical positions within the organization where turnover poses the biggest risk of disrupting operations. Then the plan should develop pathways to fill these positions when they become vacant.
At the beginning of the year, Raftelis staff forecasted the most game-changing trends for 2023. Among the list, we predicted workforce challenges to be top of mind for local governments and utilities. The pandemic certainly rattled some of the traditional norms for public sector work and organizations continue to manage the impact. Let’s see how.
Raftelis assisted the City of Charleston (the City) with a city-wide organizational assessment and process improvement evaluation of City departments.
