Description

In public service, real success isn't measured in headlines or applause. It's in the city that still runs, the crisis that never came, and the community that quietly thrives because someone cared enough to do the hard work well.

Brooks Williams—City Manager of Ferris, Texas—has become a nationally followed voice on LinkedIn for the way he writes about local government with honesty, humility, and heart. His posts capture what it feels like to lead under pressure, to balance ideals with reality, and to keep faith with a profession too often taken for granted.

In this episode, Brooks talks about why he writes, what keeps him hopeful, and how he turns reflection into fuel for leadership. He shares lessons on servant leadership, civic responsibility, and finding joy in the quiet, steady work of keeping a community running.
