Leadership grounded in local government.
Dr. James A. Poag
Dr. Poag brings more than 20 years of experience spanning municipal operations, economic development, financial oversight, community services, and compliance. His work bridges the strategic decisions of elected leadership and the practical demands of daily administration.
His background includes serving as City Manager of Florida City, leading civic engagement and development-related functions in Miami Gardens, and directing community services, internal audit, and compliance in Wellington.
That operating reality shapes everything I write, teach, and advise on today.
