BORDERS, LEVELS,
DISCIPLINES, AND
GENERATIONS.
What’s a CEO?
We are Civic CEOs

HOW WE ENGAGE.
Individuals, Businesses, Organizationsand City Clusters
Teams of cross-sector, cross-generational leaders in each city in our learning community and partnership network.
CITY CLUSTERS
Participate as a team in our convenings and access our exclusive knowledge base and network.
CITY CLUSTERS
• The City Cluster is not another new organization in your city with regular meetings you must attend.
• It is not a business roundtable made up exclusively of private sector CEOs.
• It is not a group of outside experts who think that they know what's best for your city.
WHAT THE CITY CLUSTER IS NOT
• The City Cluster is a team of cross-sector, cross-generational civic CEOs and urban leaders committed to participating in a global learning community and partnership network.
• No city lacks talent; but most cities lack a structure and process for harnessing cross-sector talent, and sharing smart ideas not only across sectors, but across borders, levels, and generations.
• We are extremely inclusive. City clusters allow individuals and organizations who could not otherwise afford to participate, to join the CEOs for Cities network.
WHAT THE CITY CLUSTER IS
•Cincinnati
•Detroit
•Grand Rapids
• Indianapolis
•Memphis
•Miami
•Milwaukee

SERENITY PRAYER FOR CITIES
God, grant my city the humility to accept that there’s always something more to learn from someone else, somewhere else;
The speed to keep up with a world that’s moving at lightning speed;
The flexibility to adapt and change
as we learn;
And the wisdom to join CEOs for Cities.
