299: Abbie Ogborn: Leading Before You Feel Ready

Abbie Ogborn: Leading Before You Feel ReadyGrowth, Grit, and Guiding a Small City Through Big Change Episode 299 of The HaltingWinter Podcast Brought to you by Tyler Technologies Abbie Ogborn didn’t set out to become a city manager. She started as a softball umpire in her hometown of Wright City, Missouri. From there, she moved into the parks department, accounts payable, and in February 2020, she was sworn in as the City Clerk. Three weeks later, City Hall shut its doors. In this episode, Abbie shares what it was like to step into leadership just before the pandemic and how the crisis accelerated modernization, strengthened regional partnerships, and reshaped how her city serves its residents. Now serving as both City Manager and City Clerk, Abbie is helping guide Wright City through one of the most significant growth seasons in its history. With nearly 1,900 residential units approved and major infrastructure changes underway, including the expansion of Interstate 70, the pressure to plan well, protect identity, and prepare for the future is right in front of her. This is a conversation about stepping up when the opportunity arrives, even if you don’t feel completely prepared. It’s about learning fast. Listening well. And building a city that can carry its future. If you lead in local government, especially in a growing community, this episode will feel familiar and encouraging.
