“If you want to become a city manager, you should be motivated by a
devotion to public service and the desire to make a lasting mark on your
community. If you want to improve the safety and quality of life for
thousands of people who you will never meet, if you are willing to take
some risks, have a thick skin, and can work in a fast-paced and
challenging environment, then you might make a very good city manager.”
— Rod Gould, City Manager in Santa Monica, California
