CONSULTINGÂ
At BLOOM, we don’t see ourselves as consultants.
Working as municipal professionals over the years, we’ve seen countless reports, studies and plans with so much potential get shelved. There were other “fires” to put out, priorities were not clearly defined, or there was a lack of understanding of how to put ideas into day-to-day practice.
We believe there is a better way to approach potential — we won’t drop a report and leave you to figure out how to put it into action. We will work alongside you as a partner through implementation and priority-setting to ensure you have a clear and realistic grasp on your goals. We will celebrate your successes with you.
BLOOM’s approach is cradle-to-grave. Or as we like to think of it, “I wonder”, to “we did it!”
So don’t think of us as consultants. Consider us your cheerleaders.
Council Orientation Training
A 2 Day Comprehensive Workshop with your Entire Council
In accordance with the Municipal Government Act, municipalities must offer training to each councillor within 90 days after the councillor has been elected.
Bloom offers a fully compliant Council Orientation course that is highly engaging and comprehensive, covering various topics over a two-day workshop.
The workshop also includes additional training on unique Bloom processes and will offer expertise on topics that have been proven to enhance the effectiveness of municipal Council.
Strategic Planning Sessions
A 2.5 Day Comprehensive Workshop with your Entire Council
Strategic planning is a misunderstood exercise that too often does not result in actions and plans that enable Council’s vision. The result is unintentional relationship challenges between Administration, Council, and the public.
Bloom’s approach to the strategic planning exercise is unique in that it focuses on tying strategic goals and realistic vision to a municipality’s operational readiness and financial capacity.
Offered through a workshop over two and a half days, Bloom provides a highly unique strategic planning process.Â
