Sara discussed fraud detection and prevention, warning signs in public office, and reviewing actual criminal cases. Now, she’s sharing her top takeaways from the overall event!

Rock 'n' Roll Leadership
 

  1. Innovative Approaches: The session on Rock 'n' Roll Leadership highlighted the connection between song lyrics and connecting people with music – regardless of the speed of time.
  2. Resilience and Adaptability: Music draws on themes of leadership, personal development, and value. 
     

Theft in Public Office

  1. No one is above the law: The discussions surrounding theft in public office underscored the critical need for internal controls and awareness. It's essential for every person, top to bottom, to uphold ethical standards to build trust within their communities.
  2. Civic Responsibility: Addressing this issue serves as a reminder of civic responsibility and training staff to actively engage in practices that prevent corruption and promote accountability.
     

Overcoming Barriers to Achieve Success

  1. Empowerment and Support: The emphasis on overcoming barriers to achieve success was particularly inspiring. It’s crucial for leaders to empower their teams and provide the necessary support to navigate challenges, fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.
