Exit Interview: The Chief of Staff Speaks

Few have as clear a view to what's actually going on in our city than the leaders in City Hall tasked with improving conditions for the residents who live, work, and recreate in our region's urban core. Brad Davy served as Chief of Staff to Mayor Justin M. Bibb for the four years of his first term. Davy led a cabinet of young leaders who hoped to remake City Hall, renovating everything from policies, procedures, and practices to customer service and relationships with city council.

The work was never easy, and the progress never enough to match the aspirations of the cabinet and the mayor. Nevertheless, there were successes along with the inevitable challenges. As he steps out of his City Hall office, former chief of staff Davy steps onto the City Club stage to share some reflections and learnings from cabinet service, along with some challenges for the community to take up.

Brad Whitehead, whose civic resume includes the Site Readiness Fund and the Fund for Our Economic Future, will moderate a wide ranging conversation.
