The Leader’s Mirror: Defining the Legacy You Want — and Preparing for What Comes Next

Session Outline and Objectives

You’ve led through change, weathered tough decisions, and helped shape the places people call home. But what happens when it’s time for the next chapter? This session is your space to pause, reflect, and get intentional about the legacy you’re leaving — and where you’re heading next. Averil Price, Solace Associate and Director of Avie Consultancy, brings her distinctive approach to Legacy Coaching, designed specifically for senior local government leaders like you. Whether you’re eyeing retirement, stepping sideways, or looking for your next big move, this interactive workshop helps you make sense of your achievements and translate them into future opportunities. You’ll also explore how to support your team through their own transitions — and ensure your influence continues to ripple out long after you’ve gone. It’s a timely moment. With further devolution and reorganisation underway across England and Wales, the choices leaders make now will shape what comes next. Come and think not just about where you've been — but where you could go.

Takeaways
  • A clearer view of the leadership legacy you want to leave

  • Practical tools to plan your next professional chapter with purpose

  • Ideas for helping others in your organisation transition well too
