Kevin Robinson: Called When the Water RoseFloods, Crisis Leadership, and Carrying a City Forward
Episode 281 of The HaltingWinter Podcast Brought to you by Tyler Technologies
What does leadership look like when the plan collapses, the water keeps rising, and an entire city is depending on steady hands?
In this episode of The HaltingWinter Podcast, Seth Winterhalter sits down with Kevin Robinson, City Manager of Spencer, Iowa, to explore a leadership journey shaped not by ambition, but by service, timing, and crisis.
Kevin's path into city management is anything but traditional. From nonprofit work and private-sector entrepreneurship to serving as mayor, cemetery superintendent, and eventually stepping into city leadership during one of the most devastating floods in Spencer's history, his story is a powerful reminder that leadership often finds us before we feel ready.
This conversation pulls back the curtain on what crisis leadership really demands in local government, long after the cameras leave and the headlines fade.
