The city of Ormond Beach is honored to announce that City Manager Joyce Shanahan has been named a top 10 finalist for the League of Women in Government’s 2020 Leadership Trailblazer Award. Each woman nominated came from a variety of backgrounds, experiences, and regions throughout the United States. This particular award is considered a testament to more than just career accomplishments, but also to the work each woman has done to mentor, coach, and advance other women in local government.
“I am humbled to be considered amongst such great women and highlight some of the great things going on in Ormond Beach," Shanahan said. "It has always been my goal to not just do good work but to inspire and help others to do the same."
The League of Women in Government is the primary affiliate group of the International City/County Management Association representing women in local government. The League serves as the umbrella organization to support local and statewide organizations that advance women to local government leadership. The League’s objective is to move the needle forward on the number of women serving at the most senior and executive levels in all areas of local government.
