GovLeaders Advisory

GovLeaders Advisory is a public sector consulting firm led by Jonathan Zitzmann, MS, MPA, CPM, that provides fractional command staff and government and public affairs services. The firm specializes in promotional examinations, policy and procedure development, organizational assessment, and crisis communications for public agencies, special purpose districts, and private firms working with government. It targets law enforcement agencies, cities, counties, water and utility districts, emergency services districts, school district public safety entities, engineering firms, and consulting firms. The practice runs virtually by design, delivering counsel, meetings, and work product to clients to keep their calendars intact and avoid travel.

The firm offers engagements that are scoped to the specific problem rather than a fixed package. Work can be priced per engagement, held on retainer, or defined by contract. The practice is built on a career spent doing this work and teaching it, with Jonathan Zitzmann having led in a small rural city, the largest and most diverse county in Texas, and one of the fastest-growing suburban counties in the country. The firm also serves engineering firms, developers, technology vendors, and professional practices that sell to government and need someone who speaks both languages.

The firm operates virtually by design, meaning the counsel, meetings, and work product all come to the client. This approach keeps the client's calendar intact and keeps travel off the invoice. Because the work starts virtually, it does not wait for schedules and flights to line up, allowing the work to begin immediately. The practice runs remotely to ensure efficiency and flexibility for all parties involved.

The firm's services include the introduction, translation, and buy-in for private firms that work with government. Private firms spend real money learning how government actually decides, and GovLeaders Advisory helps bridge this gap. The firm also addresses the policy manual last revised under a different chief, the promotional process everyone complains about, and the reorganization that has been coming for three years. These are common issues the firm is designed to solve for its clients.

The firm has experience leading in a small rural city, the largest and most diverse county in Texas, and one of the fastest-growing suburban counties in the country. This diverse background allows the firm to understand that the problems rhyme and the work translates across different sizes and types of organizations. Whether small or large, rural, suburban, urban, or all of the above, the firm's approach is adaptable to the specific needs of each client.
