German term or phrase: Kommunale Gemeinschaftsstelle für Verwaltungsmanagement (KGSt)
Hello all,

Does anyone have a neat translation for this? I've found a Wikipedia definition (which is very useful), but no English-language equivalent: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kommunale_Gemeinschaftsstelle_f...

(I've been thinking along the lines of "local government managment association/committee", but I'm guessing!)

Thanks very much for any help!

agree  Craig Meulen: They have a few English pages, and call themselves "KGSt", without a full translation of their name, so I'd stick with that and put your translation in brackets. http://www.kgst.de/verweise_unten/about_us/who_is_the_kgst/i...
