QUESTIONS FOR WRI BOARD
Have we made a persuasive case for establishing the Center and expanding our work on cities? • Is the scope of our strategy and areas of core competencies sufficiently focused? • Have we articulated a clear and distinctive value proposition for WRI’s role in the field of sustainable cities?
• Do we have a clear and logical theory for scaling our impact?
• Have we developed a robust approach for defining performance metrics and measuring our results?
