Slides for June 29 th, 2012 Policy Committee Meeting

Strategic Planning Process for Next Round (1:00-1:30) Role and Evolution of Influence Network (1:30-2:30) Discussion of “Accelerants” (2:30-3:15) Patton Boggs Update and Discussion of Implications of Policy Environment (3:15-4:00) 2 Agenda Items

Ensure that the impact of Living Cities’ work extends beyond the work itself Take a ‘balcony’ view of all Living Cities’ work and external environment to ‘connect the dots’ and identify opportunities to extend impact Assess and build organizational capacity to extend the impact of Living Cities’ work 3 Strategic Role of Policy Committee

Build on what we’ve learned Work for greater impact Expand geographic diversity 4 Board Charge for Next Round Planning

Consultations with the Executive Committee and the Board Work with organizational and TII evaluators on impact of and learning from this round External consultations with philanthropic leaders across the country (e.g., COF session, large community foundations meeting, Texas session, etc.) Environmental trend scan with McKinsey 5 Next Round Process

July Executive Committee Meeting: Initial discussion of next round scenarios September Executive Committee Meeting: More detailed discussion of next round scenarios November Board Meeting: Presentation and approval of next round portfolio July 2013: Next round begins Key question for us today: How might the mechanisms and approaches developed this round evolve going into the next round? 6 Strategic Planning Process: Key Dates and Key Question for Today

2011: Policy Committee charged staff with expanding influence network to complement existing components such as PMI Question as to how influence network should continue to evolve, including next round 2012: New components of influence network launched – Trends-in-Focus (Civic Tech) – January – Design Lab (Anchor Institutions) – March – Brookings – LC State-Metro Prosperity Network – April Continued evolution of PMI 7 Influence Network: Context

[Separate slide deck to be presented by 4 th Quadrant Partners (LC evaluator)] 8 Findings from PMI Evaluation

Emphasize transformational frame – not just managing decline, but leading innovation Better source of data – more systematically learn from what cities are facing/doing – and more intentionally publicize learnings Deepen partnership with cities – more conscious connection to LC and member institution work (Civic Tech as experiment here) Explore further evolution of PMI in context of the further evolution of our overarching influence network 9 Potential Ways to Augment the Value of PMI

Key Question: How should influence network continue to evolve to maximize benefit to LC and its members? Idea for next round: Tiered Innovation Network Functions: – Efficiently gather information for LC and members about relevant developments in cities – Provide standing channels for dissemination and deployment of Living Cities ideas – Provide platform for active collaboration/partnership around innovation in places 10 Evolution of Influence Network

Most intensive collaboration Greatest resource commitment Most multifaceted work Intentional collaboration and experimentation in particular places around particular issues Broadest geographic participation Least intensive engagement Focus is on information exchange and relationship building 11 What Defines the Tiers?

Action or effort that reduces the time it would otherwise take to achieve population-level impact on a given issue Examples in current work: – Civic Tech – accelerate the use of technology to bring citizens and local governments together to better address pressing issues facing cities – Urban Institute Study of Sustainable Communities Partnership (SCP) – will deepen our understanding of the essential elements for integrative policy 12 Update and Discussion of Accelerants

Creating economic opportunity for low- income people requires integrated approaches at regional and local levels Federal policy and practice can create significant barriers to integration SCP offers a case through which we can better understand and communicate the makings of an integration-friendly policy environment 13 Urban Institute SCP Research: Why De-Siloing, and Why SCP?

Focus on Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program as example of integrative federal policy approach Examine impact of SCP on federal agencies, particularly HUD, and regional integration Research methods: Interviews with federal SCP leaders and case studies of five regions; targeted literature review Progress to date: Federal interviews largely complete; regional case studies in progress Work to be completed through fall mtg: Regional case studies, more detailed meaning-making; draft report of preliminary findings 14 Urban Institute SCP Study: Research Approach

Initial thoughts on potential contributors to integration-friendly policy environment: Big-Picture: – Creation of shared vision – Agency leadership at top and middle levels committed to agenda, with experience working together on related issues Circumstantial: – Moment of opportunity – election of supportive administration; high gas prices; appetite for silo-busting – Precedent of collaboration on related issues (not starting from scratch) Operational: – Transparency in process and opportunities for regional participation can give agencies more legitimacy and latitude for integrative work – Peer review of documents, proposals, etc., can deepen exchange between agencies – Positioning of organizational units within federal agencies can affect the potential for integration – Clear and effective mechanisms for communication and coordination can make collaboration easier and more efficient 15 Urban Institute SCP Study: Early Emerging Learnings (mostly federal at this point)

What do the examples of accelerants discussed today suggest about the role of the accelerant concept and how it might best be pursued in the next round? 16 Discussion: Role of Accelerants

PATTON BOGGS POLICY UPDATE (Separate slide deck to be presented by Jared Fleisher) 17

What do current and potential future circumstances around the fiscal cliff and other policy issues suggest about our work in the next round? 18 Implications of Policy Environment for Next Round: Key Question for Discussion
