It is the final day of Trowers & Hamlins Local Authority Governance Week with the third episode in our series of podcasts with Professor Catherine Staite - Professor Emeritus at the University of Birmingham and our session on good governance at the Lawyers In Local Government Governance conference in Sheffield (more on that separately). In this episode titled “Avoiding local government failure – the changes needed by the sector to safeguard against failure”, Scott Dorling and I discuss the following with Catherine: * It is quite clear that the failures in councils are not isolated and caused by bad actors. Is Central government also to blame to some extent? * If you were the Minster for Local Government what would be your priorities? * Did the rigour and challenge that the Audit Commission brought to LG help keep the LG ship steady? Should we advocate its return or something similar? * What are the issues with local audit? * Are the lack of effective sanctions a barrier to enforcement of proper standards and behaviours? * Is the lack of transparency a theme running through the current failures and how could that be tackled? * What should the relationship between central and local government look like?

🎙️ New podcast with Jennifer Pahlka is out now. In her new book, "Recoding America: Why Government is Failing in the Digital Age and How We Can Do Better," Pahlka -- U.S. deputy CTO under President Obama and founder of Code for America -- takes us beyond the basics to explore why policy implementation goes wrong and what we can do to improve delivery of government services and create better outcomes for the American public. Pahlka and I discuss "Recoding America," the nexus of evidence-based policy and delivery-driven policy, and how we can close the gap between policy intentions and real-world outcomes. https://lnkd.in/eAk7CNrz

Work in the City and want to keep UK capital markets as competitive as possible outside of the European Union? Well, then it's imperative that you "step up" and help lawmakers and regulators determine how best to reach that goal, prominent government adviser Rachel Kent tells Following the Rules. In this week's episode, Kent, who is a partner at Hogan Lovells outlines how the City and its regulators can best navigate "a huge programme" of regulatory change, and why it is critical that finance execs also play their part in designing how these rule changes comes to fruition. She also discusses the regulatory priorities she would expect a Labour government to have, and outlines the mindset shift required to establish yourself as a go-to adviser to governments and lawmakers. There's something here for everyone.

Prof. Liz Dunn started a podcast where professors read aloud one of their favorite papers they recently wrote. I chose to read one Usman Liaquat spearheaded with Prof. John Jost and I. If you are implementing policies and are hope to minimize backlash, we offer explanations for why this happens and suggestions for minimizing it including: 1. reducing group distinctions and zero-sum thinking by framing policies in terms of values we all share, like fairness. 2. framing policies in ways that minimize uncertainty and threat by communicating outcomes clearly, explain the availability of resources to ensure success, and offer data on the degree and source of consensus surrounding the implementation of the policy Check out the full paper for more suggestions!
