Apr 9, 2021 9:00am - 10:00am (Eastern) | Evidence-Based Equity: Engagement for Achieving Public Impact – Workshop Current public and non-profit sector efforts to improve social conditions both in the U.S. and globally leave much room for better achieving systemic and sustainable success. One panacea that has been actively promoted by some is to simply replicate “evidence-based interventions (EBI)” that have been “proven” to be successful in other locations. However, simply replicating EBIs is not likely to work for a variety of reasons, and adapting to context has been pursued as an art without much guidance or empowerment. Taking an equity-focus in adapting promising interventions has certainly not received much attention. The challenges to implementing EBIs with an equity lens typically are numerous. We offer a practitioner and equity-focused framework and guidance for practitioners for adapting promising interventions for success through more intentional end-user engagement and collaboration. We draw upon human-centered design principles, and organizational change theory and practice knowledge to provide steps for leaders and practitioners to draw upon when they seek out, and then adapt, implement and scale promising interventions. | ![]() |

Apr 9, 2021 9:00am - 10:00am (Eastern) | Increasing Public Sector Retention Rates, Efficiency and Effectiveness with Unengaged Employees – Workshop The creative process is a way for individuals to come up with innovative ideas and solutions for problems. There are some people who feel as though the public sector is not savvy enough to find pioneering ways to solve problems or even think outside the box. Digging into the five steps of the creative process and applying its elements to the public sector will hopefully bring a fresh look into the way administrators manage and potentially alter their behavior to embrace change. The presentation focuses on some of the underlying factors affecting an employee and their performance. What is apparent throughout the industry is a fundamental lack of drive due to being unengaged for a myriad of reasons. With COVID and the stress associated with telecommuting, childcare, loss of income or housing, any singular stressor could inhibit an employee from performing their necessary job functions. In reading some of the relevant theories behind employee dissatisfaction, basic needs must be met in order to be effective.Throughout the presentation, the discussion revolves around Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs to Frederick Taylor and his scientific management theory. Although there is a need to maintain productivity and efficiencies with staff, the teachings of Taylor are unfortunately unrealistic today. Administrators should focus more on the employee and their needs in order to maintain engagement. The challenges with retaining staff continue to be problematic with budgetary challenges, however, with a little creativity and ensuring workers are satisfied with their job responsivities, employees will feel appreciated. | ![]() |

Apr 9, 2021 2:45pm - 3:45pm (Eastern) | Evaluator/Auditor Independence and Responsiveness: Walking a Tightrope The session is sponsored by ASPA’s Center for Accountability and Performance. The credibility of evaluators and auditors rests on their ability to carry out their responsibilities independently, that is, without the influence of sponsors and stakeholders. This independence is critical for those evaluators and auditors who work in the public sector – especially those tasked with oversight and watchdog responsibilities. To produce useful evaluations and audits, evaluators and auditors working in the public sector must also be responsive to the same sponsors and stakeholders. For them, maintaining their independence from and being responsive to the sponsors and stakeholders is nothing short of walking a tightrope. Rakesh Mohan, Director, Office of Performance Evaluations, Idaho Legislature Rakesh discusses the importance of managing the tension between auditor/evaluator independence and responsiveness in today’s climate of intense political polarization and an increasing lack of trust in government. Mark Funkhouser, President, Funkhouser & Associates and former Mayor of Kansas City, MO Mark places auditing and evaluation in the context of democratic governance and representative government. He talks about independence vs. isolation, who gets to decide what is audited or evaluated and how the work is to be done. He discusses the issue of defining the profession and how auditors and evaluators must resist those outside their profession who try to define it for them in ways that violate the independence of the auditor and thus devalues his or her work. Mary Hull Caballero, City Auditor, Portland, OR Mary says independence from those you audit and investigate is the bedrock of credible accountability offices. But to persuade elected officials and managers to implement your recommendations, they must be relevant to the political context. She covers the auditing profession’s historical blind spot about looking for inequitable outcomes, sticking instead to its comfort zone of assessing efficiency and effectiveness of programs and operations. Lana Rucks, Principal Consultant, The Rucks Group, Columbus, OH Lana discusses the issues of independence and responsiveness from the perspective of a for-profit organization working with public entities. She frames this discussion by considering the definition of “independence” and how that can be optimized.

The results were not surprising but were expansive: Section members were intensely engaged in a variety of research projects, many in collaboration with other organizations, to track this pandemic and get ahead of its outcomes. As the emergency management field becomes more professionalized, how can our research contribute to an effective response and help practitioners across sectors learn from past pandemics, be more successful with this one and hopefully mitigate negative results as much as possible? Our panelists will explore SECM’s efforts and their outcomes. | ![]() |

Many ALICE workers are essential, yet despite being critical to keeping the economy running, risk their health for low wages and often no benefits, many ALICE workers have had their hours and wages cut or lost their jobs altogether. These families are likely to fall farther behind in a post-pandemic “normal” without additional policy intervention. This panel will highlight the current challenges ALICE families are facing and share how better data can drive the Biden-Harris policy agenda for an equitable recovery. | ![]() |

Apr 10, 2021 1:00pm - 2:00pm (Eastern) | Community Engagement during a Pandemic: Thinking Outside the Box – Workshop 2020 was a challenging year for local governments and it became clear that business-as-usual will not work in our new normal. This past year also put into sharp relief the deep institutional inequities for communities of color and the government’s role in perpetuating those inequities. It is with that backdrop the King County International Airport reimagined what community engagement could look like. KCIA, not to be confused with major commercial airport of SeaTac, is one of the nation’s busiest primary non-hub airports. The airport averages 200,000 takeoffs and landings each year and supports $3.5 billion in local business and over 16,000 jobs. The airport serves small commercial passenger airlines, cargo carriers, the Boeing Company operations, private aircraft owners, helicopters, corporate jets, military and other aircraft. At the beginning of 2020, the airport was finalizing a Federal Aviation Administration required master plan that provides a blueprint for the next twenty years of operations and capital projects at the airport. Then the pandemic hit and it upended every aspect of life. The pandemic made us to think outside the box on how to equitably work with community to inform and understand their needs. The airport is a big part of multiple communities and we want to be a good neighbor as we plan for the future of the airport. Given public health guidelines, there would be no business-as-usual public engagement meetings, so it provided us an opportunity to decide what we wanted true engagement to look like in the new digital environment. | ![]() |

Apr 10, 2021 2:15pm - 3:30pm (Eastern) | Localizing the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals: Experiences across the Continents Adopted in 2015, there are 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) providing a blueprint for peace and prosperity for the people and the planet. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality and spur economic growth - all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests. The original aspiration was to accomplish these goals by 2030, but in order to make that a reality, broad ownership of the SDGs must translate into a strong commitment by all stakeholders to implement the global goals. Our panelists will discuss how local governments in countries around the world have experienced putting these goals into action, programs that have been adopted, best practices that have been found and the likelihood that 2030 remains a realistic target year for completion. | ![]() |

Apr 14, 2021 1:00pm - 2:15pm (Eastern) | Donald C. Stone Lecture Featuring Donald Moynihan Donald Moynihan is the inaugural McCourt Chair at the McCourt School of Public Policy at Georgetown University. His research examines how to improve how government works and his lecture will look at the role of administrative burdens on public service. The last decade has seen new interest in the study of the frictions that people encounter in their interactions with public services, such as getting a driver's license, accessing the social safety net or pursuing basic civil rights like voting. Such administrative burdens can have big effects, reinforce patterns of inequality and be used in deliberate ways to make programs less accessible and more frustrating to the public. Such burdens present a challenge to public administration to demonstrate both relevance and rigor in a topic the public cares about and matters to policy outcomes. Join us to hear new research on administrative burdens and compare different approaches by the Trump and Biden administrations. | ![]() |

Apr 15, 2021 10:15am - 11:15am (Eastern) | How Cities Can Address Systemic Racism and Police Excessive Use of Force – Workshop Systemic racism has plagued the United States as well as many countries all over the world for centuries. While the equal treatment of all people regardless of their race, ethnic background or gender has been the aspirational ideal, the reality of life in this country has not lived up to this standard. While this systemic racism has manifested itself in many ways, the history and recent incidences of the police excessive use of force against non-white people and Black individuals, in particular, has been a failing of our communities. In 2020, we saw an increased recognition of this problem which is now regarded by an overwhelming majority of Americans as an unacceptable practice. This work session will include a presentation of a system of police reforms to address incidences of police brutality as well as provide a framework for counteracting community racism and socio-economic disparities that are a result of discrimination. The two presenters, James Bourey and Richard Myers, are long-time local government managers. An ASPA member, Mr. Bourey has over 37 years as a city and county manager in many locations throughout the country and six years as a consultant to local governments. Mr. Myers has served as a chief of police in many cities as well as provided guidance to other cities faced with a strong community response to police brutality incidences. | ![]() |

Public service is for all, but too often public policy doesn’t do enough to serve those who need it most. Creating and developing municipal diversity and inclusion offices is a great step toward focused efforts to close these gaps. This panel will look at the work with which cities across the country are wrestling to examine their history of equity and inclusion, and strategize for how to create a more inclusive community. | ![]() |
