Southern Pulse Newsletter, August 2022

The kids are back in school, the mornings are cooler (in some states), and CSG South is ramping up from our quick post-Southern Legislative Conference breather. It’s time for fall – that means programming, programming.

Opening up our fall programming is our three Masterclasses: Growing Prosperity: Agriculture, Technology, and the Future of Farming (September 6-8), The Future State: Cybersecurity, Technology, and Innovation in Government Operations (September 27-29), and Anchors Aweigh: Navigating the Policy of Ports (October 4-6). Each Masterclass is a deep dive into a specific subject area policy, bringing in expert speakers from around the region to present, answer questions, and engage in open dialogue between legislators and experts. Masterclasses also have site visits – not simply panel experiences – allowing attendees to truly connect with the subject matter. Space is limited, so if you are interested in attending, click here to submit your interest form.

Moving into October and November, our two flagship leadership development programs offer regional networking and superior training opportunities for elected and appointed officials (CALS) and the staffers (SAGE) who underpin the functions of state government. As the deadline has passed to apply for the 2022 class, our staff will reach out to the lucky selectees for more information on travel and itinerary. Good luck to all of you who applied!

Finally, don’t miss our upcoming long-form publications by our analysts and policy experts, so check back on our website for new, region-specific content. If it concerns our Southern states, you can count on the CSG South policy team to keep you informed.

Until September,
Lindsey G.
