Composing Governance: Evolving Smarter Forms To Connect Communities of Practice and Accelerate Citizen-Centered Government (41N3)
Purpose: To explore the Potential and Realities of Composing Governance: Evolving Smarter Forms To Connect Communities of Practice and Accelerate Citizen-Centered Government. How are new collaboration norms and civic tools broadening how societies create and preserve meaning together over time? The President's Management Agenda requires all federal agencies to transform the roles and relationships among their people, processes, and technology in order to become a citizen-centered government. As more people gather in ad hoc and chartered communities to achieve the creativity demanded by complex national challenges, what will these new forms of public association, solution envisioning, and standards-building look like? How can we practice stakeholder-centered forms of governance? What new roles and relationships are needed to balance how to: (41N4)
- better appreciate our relationship to wholes – institutions, organizations, and multi-sector governance; (41N5)
- use our influence to better cooperate and compete as part of those wholes; and (41N6)
- better control our resources so that they are used synergistically with those of others and the whole? (41N7)
