Strategies for Effecive Leadership in Local Government
Nelson W. Wolff
San Antonio, Texas is the seventh largest city in the United States, with a population of 1.5 million people. Bexar County encompasses the city of San Antonio, as well as 26 other suburban cities and a large unincorporated area.
Nelson Wolff served two terms as Mayor of San Antonio and five terms as County Judge for Bexar County—Chief Executive Officer and its highest authority—as well the Texas House of Representatives and the Texas Senate.
Under his leadership, San Antonio and Bexar County became a recognized leader in environmental restoration, therapeutic justice, the arts, sports and healthcare, among many other accomplishments.
These 95 Power Principles are based on his achievements over 33 years in government as well as 36 years as a successful business leader. The principles can be applied in any American city or county—large or small—and are equally relevant to success in the private sector as they are to achieving political goals.
“...the most consequential public official
of the modern San Antonio era.”
