Summary

An urban leader's sweeping and innovative journey through some of the most recognizable challenges confronting cities in America.

Drawing from his experiences as a lawyer, municipal official, and foundation president, Rip Rapson offers two dozen stories of leadership across three decades of civic service. Ranging in weight, complexity, and consequence, the chapters illuminate the rich and expansive potential of principled leadership to improve the ebbs and flows, the rhythms, the contours of contemporary life.

Threaded through the accounts is the recognition that a willingness — indeed, a readiness — to adjust, refashion, or even abandon established decision-making expectations or authorities is an essential ingredient in seeking to crack the most difficult challenges of contemporary life.
