Show Notes: Book of the Week – "The Speed of Trust" Episode 174 of The HaltingWinter Podcast The Cost of Distrust: Why Everything Takes Too Long in Local Government (Part 1 of 5: "The Speed of Trust" Series)

This week, Seth Winterhalter kicks off a new series inside the MLDC focused on The Speed of Trust by Stephen M.R. Covey, beginning with a hard truth municipal leaders can't afford to ignore: low trust is costing your city time, money, and momentum.

In this episode, Seth explores how trust acts as an unseen accelerant (or drag) in every system of local government, from software implementations and policy rollouts to budget conversations and community engagement. You'll learn the real difference between high-trust and low-trust environments and why trust isn't a soft skill—it's a measurable, economic force every leader must master.

• Why trust is a quantifiable economic driver in city government

• How low trust creates delays, costs, skepticism, and silos across departments

• The difference between the "trust tax" and the "trust dividend"

• Real municipal examples: software rollouts, project delays, and policy gridlock

• The Four Cores of Credibility every municipal leader must build: → Integrity → Intent → Capabilities → Results

• Three high-leverage trust-building behaviors: → Straight Talk → Transparency → Listen First

Monday: The economic and relational cost of low trust Tuesday–Thursday: Self-awareness, people-awareness, and language-awareness in leadership Friday: Real-world implementation and trust-turnaround stories from municipal leaders nationwide

Show Notes: Kevin Phelps - From 'Near Bankruptcy' to Entertainment Powerhouse: Reimagining City Identity in the DesertEpisode 170 of The HaltingWinter Podcast

Overview In this episode of The HaltingWinter Podcast, Seth Winterhalter interviews Kevin Phelps, City Manager of Glendale, Arizona. Kevin shares his remarkable journey from private sector entrepreneur to transformational public sector leader. With a business background that began with opening the Northwest's first video store chain (which even attracted FBI attention!), Kevin brings unique insights about applying private sector speed and accountability to government operations. Under his leadership, Glendale transformed from near-bankruptcy to financial prosperity by reimagining its identity as an entertainment powerhouse while developing a culture that enables innovation and calculated risk-taking in municipal government.

Episode Highlights:

• Private to Public Sector Journey: How Kevin's entrepreneurial background, from video store owner to convention center developer, shaped his approach to public service
• Financial Transformation: The strategic shift that took Glendale from "financial straits worse than any city except Detroit" to nearly $300 million in reserves without raising property taxes

• Chief Culture Officer: Kevin's perspective that his most important role is shaping organizational culture rather than managing operations
• Breaking Bureaucratic Silos: Rewarding department directors based on how much they help other departments, not just their own success
• Work-Life Boundaries: Why Kevin banned weekend email chains and encourages staff to turn off city communications after hours

• Real examples of city leaders pursuing creative, physical, and restorative goals

• How contrast creates clarity and joy outside—and inside—the office

• Why your leadership is strengthened when your identity isn't swallowed by your role
