Three Question Local Gov Life Advice

1:17: Question 1: “When do I know it’s time to leave my organization for other opportunities? Or am I better off sticking around and seeing what opens up?”

13:49 Question 2: "I've been the ACAO in a medium-sized town for six years. Recently they created a new second ACAO position. The new hire has a few more years experience. The exact split of responsibilities is unclear.

22:20 Question 3: "What’s the best way for an ACAO to gain experience working with council without overstepping the CAO"
