Just as the 92nd Annual Meeting of The United States Conference of Mayors wraps up, we introduce this episode that addresses issues of local involvement and priorities of local governments.
Denise speaks to Bryan K. Barnett, the longest serving Mayor of Rochester Hills, MI. Bryan was America’s Mayor while he served as the 77th president of The US Conference of Mayors right as the pandemic started. “There is no such thing as a typical day” - He shares his experiences, unique path into local politics, and perspective on daily challenges. In our days of deep polarization, he talks about his approach to build bridges and broaden his reach. While Bryan is involved in national leadership issues, he insists that there is no greater way to make an impact than on a local level and encourages young people to get involved in their community.
Bryan K. Barnett has served as Rochester Hills’ (MI) mayor since 2006. His administration has received local, national, and international recognition for innovation, fiscal responsibility, operational excellence, and environmental leadership. Mayor Barnett is a frequent national speaker on topics including innovative government, long- term sustainability, and economic development.
