Being an effective city planner means being an effective leader.
You need to be prepared to convince people that good planning
matters. Often a well-written, thoughtful and inclusive plan
doesn't result in meaningful action, because planners don't show
leadership skills. At some point, some city planners become cynical
and worn down, wondering why no one listens to them but not doing
the self-reflection about how that could change. Leadership in
Planning explains how to get support for planning initiatives so
they don't just fade from memory. It will guide city planners to
think less about organizational charts and more about: * being a
respected voice within your organization, both with staff and with
your boss; * being a good communicator with people outside your
organization; and * being able to understand how and when to push
for good planning ideas to turn them into actions. Along the way,
case studies bring these concepts to the real world of municipal
planning. In addition, past planning figures' actions are explored
to see what they did right and what mistakes they made.
