how do we continue to bring in fresh perspectives and people who challenge us/each other?

So many of the request that come in from our people are about connections to people or resources.

CTDC is our first big govt grant we've ever received. If we deliver, we could position ourselves at govt partners for future projects, but if we fail - it will be hard to make the case that we should receive funding for coalition bets in the future. (RE)

It seems like our convenings over the last year and a half have been pretty specific to CBE, which has been great to generate convo specifically around our work, but I'm wondering if we can incorporate more topics that are broader in education.

We don't yet have the breadth or strength of relationships that we need in these circles to navigate something as complex as Teacher Role Redesign. We will need allies here to navigate tough conversations re: collective bargaining that are likely to surface. (RE)

Authentic opportunities to practice telling their story and pitching what they need or can do. (Was struck by that unique value-add at Brunello event--particularly as it was less controlled than many CBE events)

Thinking about the connection with Hardy Vieux from the BC event and how it could lead an additional board member for Myron, could we provide more networking opportunities like this for E's?

Most of our individual donors are Katherine legacy relationships - typically in their late 50s or older. We need to begin stewarding the next generation of donors who might not be able to give at the same levels yet, but who will be in the future.

How are we engaging other organizations that are excited about our non-profit/social venture tracks

# data[].attributes.body
As our network of Es and alums gets bigger, we can't afford TLC for everyone all the time. We need a platform that allows folks to engage with us in less time-intensive/bespoke ways where appropriate.

# data[].attributes.body
Or something like it for Teacher Role Redesign - how are we transparently holding up ideas for scrutiny and input from different perspectives?

# data[].attributes.body
We are getting more and more applications for edtech or for-profit ventures. Our expertise has been in school design/non-profit work. We need folks with expertise that reflects demand. (RE)

how are we ensuring the voices of teachers (not leaders, principals, exec directors) are incorporated fully into this work?

How are we tracking our interactions, whos in our network, and network expansion

The raised profile of CTDC + the teacher redesign work will invite more politicized conversations than we are used to. How are we syncing up with our partners in the advocacy space to ensure we are prepared + message-aligned?

key external stakeholder voices are important as we work to understand and strengthen the brand

General operating funds (unrestricted grants) are the most flexible and therefore most valuable dollars we can raise - which is a great fit for an incubator. Gain the trust of funders who are in the position to give this way.

We aren't the best organization for running parent focus groups or hearing the needs of very specific communities across the city. How can we better partner with orgs that have those close ties and incorporate their learnings into our strategy? (RE)

# data[].attributes.body
Kind of similar to branding as well - but I think we can get stronger on knowing how to communicate to funders (and really any other stakeholder) about CityBridge in general and the Incubator. Sometimes it feels easier to talk about CityTutor DC (I think for several reasons) but I think we can get a lot stronger on how we are communicating about CBE more generally.

How do staff understand and feel about our fundraising operations? Is there a desire to know more? No less? Be involved?

How much of a "pain point" is reporting and fundraising [for non-Dev staff] with our current level of capacity?

# data[].attributes.body
Support of all kinds is maintained more easily and more passively when it isn't project-based, but more broadly rooted in our brand. Where do we want to be known as local and national thought leaders? Who can be our champions in those spaces? (RE)

# data[].attributes.body
Are we getting the input we need from the larger ventures/edtech community? Is there an advisory group to create more buy in

What's our goal in terms of engaging "the network"? Do we want always a bigger audience or do we want a deeply engaged target group?
