How Durham’s Community-First Approach is Driving Real Strategic Change

March 20, 2025

Let’s face it—strategic planning in government is often overly complicated, slowed down or stuck in bureaucracy, and disconnected from the people it’s meant to serve. Durham County is flipping that script. By putting community voices at the center of their process, they’re proving that strategy doesn’t have to just be a top-down exercise—it can be a dynamic, responsive tool that delivers real impact.

Join us for an exclusive conversation with Pat Madej, Strategic Initiatives Manager for Durham County, as he shares Durham's journey of streamlining processes, improving transparency, and making strategic updates easier for their departments. We'll discuss:

🔍 Why traditional strategic plans fail—and how to address common challenges
🤝 Using community engagement to shape priorities, not just check a box
📊 Best practices for structuring scorecards, reports, and automations to showcase progress
🚀 How ClearPoint Strategy has helped Durham build an effective framework for reporting and decision-making

This is not just another discussion about “best practices.” It’s a real look at how local government can rethink strategy to be more transparent, effective, and manageable. We can't wait to see you there, register today to save your seat!
