Case Study Expectations
In keeping with the philosophy of
"innovation", case study applications are to address innovative
excellence specific to "Making Magic – How Bold Can Government
Be?" Applications should be related to one of the following
topics:
-
Collaboration and
Partnerships - Public-private partnerships, Public-public
partnerships, Public-non-profit partnerships, Regionalism, Shared
service delivery
-
Management Strategies for
Continuous Improvement - How we position
ourselves to act boldly -- Value added service delivery, Streamlined
operations, Cross departmental teaming, Organization models –
Reorganization, Measuring Performance
-
Public Involvement -
New and innovative approaches to engaging citizens - Involving the
public in priority setting, Citizen education - growing good
citizens, Reaching new audiences, Communication techniques
-
Local Government
Professionals Toolbox - Skills for today's leaders --
Scenario planning, SWOT, Strategic Planning, Building an effective
learning program, Exposure to concepts like HPO, Lean, ISO
Case Study presentations should be designed to be interactive and
generally presented by a team (No less than two but preferably, not more
than five). The
intent is to
inform and engage the audience and to avoid the "talking head"
presentation.
If your presentation is going to include a private vendor, TLG/FCCMA
reserves the right to move your application to our Solution Sessions.
These sessions
are similar to Case Studies in that they focus on innovative new ideas
that you as a local government have instituted to improve a part of your
organization in collaboration with a private sector company and will
include your participation in the presentation.
All local governments are welcome to submit a case study application;
you do not need to be an Alliance for Innovation or FCCMA Member.
However, we do request an opportunity to meet with your organization to
share the value and benefits of membership prior to the June
conference.
If your presentation/case study includes work with a private company we
request the opportunity to speak with
them about a sponsorship at the conference.
