Master Planning is distinguished from design in that planning helps to identify the underlying ethos and culture of a community and gauge its readiness for change. From this place of real understanding, it becomes possible to propose conceptual solutions to problems with suitable pathways for transformation. In a data-drenched world, it is not just the information we collect as much as the questions that are asked by our clients that shape outcomes.
Join us for this 90-minute interactive “call to action”. Together, we will learn how to create transformative master plans for small and large school districts to pave the way for transformative policy, programming, and precedence that will act as catalysts for the robust designs that follow.

Join District Leaders, CBRE and DLR Group to hear from the experts about different lenses that can impact Master Plan results. Do a deep dive on five very different “calls to action”, processes, priorities, and outcomes. Key characteristics of a few examples are:
Content developed in this session will be developed into a white paper that will provide key questions that every district should be aware of when they develop their next master plan.
