讲座一内容简介：

The focus of the talk would be to identify the most daunting challenges city government leaders must prepare for in the immediate decades ahead. Some of what I discuss will be drawn from PAR, but I will draw from a broad set of sources. I will also spend some of my time defining “effective” city governance because that is central to challenges city leaders will confront.

What are the attributes, characteristics, or qualities of effective and enterprising governance? How can we recognize and train the effective public administrator? What qualities, attributes, skills, and behaviors are characteristic of effective public administrators? The presentation will synthesize insights about what we know regarding both effective governance and effective public administrators.

讲座二内容简介:

American cities are a basic part of the fabric of our democratic traditions. Many of these cities are served by professional city managers and administrators. Cities that succeed at an outstanding level often employ professionals. Yet the average American knows little about the role of these professionals. City managers, partnering with elected leaders and citizens in these communities, have worked to fulfill those aspirations. This lecture highlights the values and relationships that must be cultivated by the city manager to successfully build community. Although the focus is on the role of the city manager, other key participants such as elected officials, citizens, and employees can gain from the insights. Community building requires connecting the key groups in the community to the mission and "sacred things" dear to residents. Harnessing the energy of all the players produces tremendous results.
