Over last decade governments across the country have seen their share of political leadership challenges.  This Policy, Pizza & a Pint event was held prior to the NDP Leadership. The event tackled the complexities of political leadership. What makes a good political leader? How does a leader bounce back from public mistakes? How do leaders exit gracefully to allow for rejuvenation for their city, province, country and political party? Dr. Paul Thomas (Professor Emeritus, University of Manitoba) shares his thoughts on what political leadership is and what it means.

By bringing together government, practitioners, scholars and members of the community, the Manitoba Institute for Policy Research will further debates and discussion on matters of policy development, administration, and analysis both in Manitoba and across the country.

Currently we are working with the Government of Manitoba, the Federal Government, the United Way of Winnipeg, and other voluntary sector agencies on developing and implementing new outreach, training, and research opportunities.
