How Exposure and Mentorship Shape the Next Generation of City Managers
Episode 304 of The HaltingWinter Podcast
Brought to you by Tyler Technologies

What if the future of local government hinges on a single conversation?

Before he ever stepped into the Township Administrator’s office in Colerain Township, Ohio, Jeff Weckbach was simply a college student completing an assignment. He reached out to then–City Manager Milton Dohoney for an interview.

That hour changed everything.

In this episode, Jeff shares how exposure, not early certainty, set him on the path to municipal leadership. From internships and county government to becoming Township Administrator, his journey highlights something critical: the pipeline doesn’t build itself.

Jeff’s story is steady, thoughtful, and deeply relevant to today’s municipal landscape. It’s a reminder that leadership is often shaped long before someone sits in the big chair and that today’s leaders have a responsibility to open doors for those coming behind them.
