The most dangerous time to get your strategy wrong is when times are tough. There is simply no room for mistakes.

What can you do now to make sure your city recovers quickly and is well positioned for the long haul? Helping our network members answer that question with insights developed outside of the echo chambers of traditional membership organizations is what CEOs for Cities does best.

CEOs for Cities was founded on the understanding that cross-sector, cross-issue memberships are critical to the success of cities. We also understand that there are no “best practice” solutions that work for all cities. That’s why we provide urban leaders with a research-driven framework that gives them a lens through which they can develop responses to the unique challenges and opportunities their city faces.

But we can't do it without the guidance and support of forward thinking urban leaders.

The support of our network members allows CEOs for Cities to continue to advocate for smart investments in critical, high payoff areas that will result in the development of the next generation of great American cities, including yours.

Now, more than ever, CEOs for Cities needs strong voices to elevate the message that cities are the solution.  It is essential that we, as a network of key influencers, continue to communicate this to the new administration as it works to develop policies that will likely chart the course for cities for decades to come.

CEOs for Cities is redefining the agenda for cities - with new perceptions, groundbreaking research and unique city networks. Because of it, its members are pioneering innovations on the forces that drive economic growth and contribute to national prosperity. Foremost among these are talent, connections, distinctiveness, innovation, core vitality and sustainability, and that’s why CEOs for Cities and its members are working to shape these cities to reinforce their roles as centers of diversity, interaction, entrepreneurship and change.

But being a member of CEOs for Cities means more than just being part of a dynamic network of urban leaders. It also means that you join in a national movement, powered by our members, powered by our new solutions and powered by our commitment to create significant new economic value to metro areas and to the nation.

Today, there is nothing easy or automatic about becoming a successful city. Places that cling to the old ways of doing things, old views of society and the old agenda may find themselves pulled under by the waves of change, rather than being pushed along by them.

Membership in CEOs for Cities connects you with a vision of what your city can be and provides insights on strategies that can make it a reality.
