Abstract: Local political leaders are facing in time of austerity requirements of central government and also needs and expectations of stakeholders. Such pressures demand that local political leaders adopt new ways of working, new mechanisms for engaging with citizens and communities and respond to new structures and processes for local accountability. In one way cooperation with central government is important from the part of local leaders and on the other hand it is important to forge a vision for the locality and needs of stakeholders. Under austerity terms, these challenges for local political leaders are magnified.
