Michael Rogers' career arc was impressive having become a well-respected public sector executive in some of the largest organizations in the nation. He\xa0 had finally reached his goal of becoming a city manager -- and he was killing it.\n\xa0\nHe received glowing remarks and a salary increase in his first annual review.\n\xa0\nBut an election in the City of Tracy, Calif., brought changes to the council composition and within five months he was forced out.\n\xa0\nRogers has no regrets about taking the position, but he does reflect back on what he would have done differently in this insightful discussion. He owns his mistakes while minimizing his unfortunate treatment and de-emphasizing the Machiavellian "palace intrigue" that led to his ouster.\n\xa0\nSUPPORT THE PODCAST:\n\xa0\nPlease rate and review the podcast on Apple or your preferred platform if you enjoy the show.
