Every city executive hits this moment. You're staring at your calendar, wondering if you can keep this pace, questioning if the wins are worth the cost. This eBook walks you through the real question: What do you actually want? And how do you get there without burning everything down?
For when you're questioning if this is still worth it
Free eBook for City Executives: Should I Stay or Go?
You'll walk away knowing what you actually want and how to move forward without guilt or second-guessing.
End the 2 AM mental loops. Get a clear process that helps you actually make the decision.
Use a Framework That Stops the Spin:
Most people don't know about integration. It's the path where you stay but lead differently, so the role stops draining you.
Discover Your Third Option:
Give yourself permission to see leaving as an option, not a failure.
Consider the Case for Going:
Take an honest look at what pushing through is costing you: energy, relationships, health, performance.
Assess the Cost of Staying:
Figure out if you're dealing with normal stress or actual misalignment. There's a difference.
Recognize the Crossroads:
You know you need to make a decision. The problem is you keep going in circles instead of actually making one. This eBook gives you a clear process.
What's Inside:
After 15 years in city management, I've been exactly where you are. The pressure, the toll it takes, the quiet question of whether it's all still worth it. I created this eBook because too many leaders are unraveling in silence, afraid to admit they're questioning everything.
This is your permission to face the question head-on.

Hi, I’m Kellye.
The framework in this eBook mirrors the coaching work I do with city executives every day.
