Marble Falls Fire Rescue

The Texas Municipal League recognized Emergency Management Coordinator Amanda Carlisle as a Leadership Fellow on Friday, May 15, 2026, at the Austin Marriott Hotel in Round Rock.

Amanda Carlisle was honored by Monty Wynn, Texas Municipal League (TML) Executive Director, during the awards ceremony. The award recipients – elected, appointed, first responders, and other city leaders from throughout Texas – voluntarily completed more than 25 hours of training, held over two months, to enhance their leadership skills.

Participants explored the principles and characteristics of ethical leadership, learned to build trust and community, discovered ways to improve team building and communication skills, and practiced negotiation for strategic influence. They discussed local issues in the broader leadership context, with the goal of applying learnings to their public service role and to benefit their cities and residents.

Created in 1913, the Texas Municipal League is a nonprofit organization that provides legal guidance, legislative advocacy, publications, training, and networking opportunities to officials from over 1,171 cities in Texas.
