Abstract
Values are the basic rules and guidelines that drive a person or organization. Leaders are the most important means of establishing the values throughout the organization. The City of Weatherford has a set of core values that include: integrity, innovation, accountability, teamwork, and commitment. This manual was compiled in order to train the city's leadership on these values. The first section of the manual is written to give users background on "managerial leadership" which is the foundation of running any organization. The next section, "Weatherford 101" lays out the context of being an employee of Weatherford. The history, government structure, leadership framework, demographics etc. are elements of the city a leader needs to know to best serve the community.
