The District Councils'

Network Challenge 2025

tbc 2025


Location tbc

An all-day management training event that, through simulation, places delegates from the District Councils' Network (DCN) into senior management positions within a fictional Council allowing them to manage, and propose resolution to, a wide range of relevant issues.


Open to those enrolled in the DCN Staff Development Programme, delegates will have the opportunity to test themselves in a safe environment. They will be able to:


  • Develop their organisational, communication and team building skills and behaviours through interactions with a wide range of associates.
  • Understand how important emotional intelligence is in the modern workspace.
  • Have the opportunity to speak real "truth to power", whilst balancing their political awareness and understanding of the power relationships.
