About our Speaker:

Otis White is the founder and president of Civic Strategies Inc., an Atlanta-based public policy consulting company that specializes in cities and regions.

Before becoming a consultant, White was editor and publisher of Georgia Trend, an award-winning magazine that covered the Georgia business community (and which was then owned by the same company that publishes Governing). In 1982, as a business reporter for sister publication Florida Trend, he won an Alicia Patterson fellowship that enabled him to spend a year traveling around the country studying how computers were changing the way people work.

After founding Civic Strategies in 1998, White began looking for a way to keep tabs on important events in cities across the country. He began e-mailing a list of summaries of news articles from around the country to clients. The e-mail list evolved into Otis White’s Urban Notebook, which ran as a daily feature on Governing.com as well as in Governing Magazine.

In January 2007, White moved on to other pursuits, most notably a project to understand how communities make important decisions.
