Mayor Elizabeth Alcantar, Vice Mayor Jose Gonzalez and City Manager Santor Nishizaki of the city of Cudahy, California -- a suburb of Los Angeles -- along with other city officials were our guests on a recent Called to Coach. Elizabeth, Jose and Santor discussed how Cudahy is seeking to become a CliftonStrengths-based city and how city officials are using their strengths in their roles to move the city forward. Their insights included:

•How their differing CliftonStrengths have combined powerfully to help them serve their city
•How strengths has enabled them to retain staff and keep city services operating during economic hard times
•How their strengths have worked together to keep them emotionally connected even though many are working remotely
