The municipalities have taken on the leadership task in the green transition - here and now the municipalities' most important task is to move forward with the concrete climate work. And to pay attention to citizen involvement as a vital element along the way.
Laila Kildesgaard argues for this in the latest episode of Leadership in Change, where a number of prominent leaders offer suggestions for challenges in public management and possible solution models.
With experience as a municipal director on Bornholm and director of KL, Laila Kildesgaard today works as an independent consultant and advisor to, among others, municipalities on climate issues. She highlights the municipalities as the central management function for citizen involvement.
- It is good that almost everyone has set goals and has spoken to citizens and businesses. The important thing now is to implement some of all those plans, and to get the right tools for it. It doesn't have to be rocket science to handle climate efforts in municipalities, she says.
- It's not necessarily some great, spiritual leadership that's needed now, it's action.
