"The Unique Lens" is itself a product of the process as are the tech tools that have opened up a view on local government strategy, culture, management and decision-making unlike anything else! - Center for Priority Based Budgeting (CPBB)
The key breakthrough in this area has been "data visualization" which
allows for the easiest way of creating a common view, a common
perspective that is simple and that everybody can agree on. Part of the
reason that financial problems can be obscured or hidden is because many
times decisions makers have no idea how to understand finances to begin
with.
Data Visualization allows us to create a common view of the financial situation that is simple to understand and interpret, describes the clearly defined variables that can impact the financial situation, allows for "live" and "real-time" changes in these variables, and offers the ability for "dynamic" modeling of "what-if" scenarios - this is how transparency is created, and this is the essential first component of the paradigm shift required.
"Fiscal Health & Literacy" - The CPBB Espresso Blast
#5
At the Center for
Priority Based Budgeting, we're all about creativity and innovation
in all forms.
Whether it be through expanding and improving our core concepts
of Fiscal
Health and Wellness through Priority Based Budgeting, migrating our Fiscal
Health tool to a web-based Economic Modeling and Forecasting Tool, or finding transformative new ways to communicate
how local government communities are implementing these revolutionary tools and
concepts, we're never satisfied with the status quo in this "New Wave" of municipal fiscal stewardship.
With this in mind, we're rolling out the fifth of many breakthrough
Our first Espresso Blast, titled "How it All Started", explored the genesis of the Center for Priority Based Budgeting and the formulation of our core concepts. Our second Espresso Blast "The Decade of Local Government" dived deep into the enormous opportunities available for local government communities in this new era. Our third Espresso Blast "Resource Liberation" promotes the idea that more and more communities are finding ways to free valuable resources and re-allocate them to new and extremely important programs and initiatives.
This new video expands upon these opportunities by diving deeper into the concepts of "fiscal health" and "fiscal literacy." The CPBB has seen its diagnostic approach to achieving Fiscal Health and the development and utilization of its unique and innovative “Fiscal Health Economic Modeling and Forecasting Tool” profoundly change the conversation between local government managers, finance professionals and elected officials. These are but a few of the powerful ways Fiscal Health has been used to help local government leaders achieve long-term financial sustainability.
