Colorado Municipalities

Human resources professionals play a key role in local governments. HR departments serve as a bridge between employees and management — helping municipalities be productive while keeping workers empowered and engaged. The October issue of Colorado Municipalities explores this rapidly evolving profession and highlights the people who practice it on behalf of cities and towns. Articles in this issue focus on emerging issues such as legal considerations when using artificial intelligence in hiring, high-level conflict management, burnout, generational gaps in the workforce, and municipal child care programs.
