Understanding the root cause of a problem at your water system is the crucial first step in addressing the issue appropriately. In this webinar, we will introduce and demonstrate two tools that will help water operators and managers get to the root cause of a difficult problem. The first tool is a line of inquiry called Five Why's. The second is using a lens through which you can examine the problem from different perspectives, called PESTEL. By using these tools, water operators and managers can ensure that they define the problem correctly, so they can apply the right methods, and maximize the efficiency of their staff time, money, and other resources. Presenter: Elaine McCarty, Senior Associate - Environmental Finance Center West
There are many benefits of collaborative relationships between water utilities, land conservation agencies and land trusts, and municipalities and counties to protect drinking water sources facing development pressure. Collaboration is not easy, however, and does not come naturally to all involved. In this webinar, you will learn about the benefits of collaboration as well as how to overcome any challenges that may arise. Our panelists will share both the successes and lessons learned from getting outside their comfort zones and forging new partnerships. Presenters: Ed Suslovic, Program Manager - New England Environmental Finance Center, as well as a panel of water utility managers and land conservation group representatives
