Budgeting is more than balancing numbers-it is a leadership responsibility. In this highly interactive workshop, participants will step into a fictional community and work through an entire law enforcement budget cycle. Through a progressive simulation, they will set priorities, build and defend a budget, respond to unexpected costs and reductions, make strategic tradeoffs, and adjust when circumstances change. Participants leave with practical experience and tools they can apply to budget decisions in their own agencies.
