Summary

Are you tasked with implementing policy, but frustrated when you and your team can’t get it across the finish line? Are you a policymaker wondering why the policy you’ve developed to address a pressing issue for your community or organization fails to come to fruition? You are not alone. The Implementing Public Policy (IPP) executive program is uniquely designed to help you approach policy implementation in a new way by testing tools and frameworks you learn on your implementation challenge, in your own context, in real time. This session features the IPP program team and program alumni who share how this program can help you and your organization achieve better policy outcomes.
