Nine common patterns (traits) of effective planning efforts were identified and aligned with social network methods. This provided the framework from which to develop a tool determining the ability of a community to implement planning efforts, regardless of which planning approach it is utilizing. Between 2007 and 2009, the diagnostic tool was administered through a case study. The case study employed a snowball survey and key informant interviews that explored informal and formal communication patterns of a community’s planning capacity. Based upon that research, a model was developed to formatively assess the ability of any community to implement plans and planning activities. In doing so, it is hoped community leaders and planning professionals may more effectively understand the full communicative dynamics at work in their local planning implementation efforts. In that way locals may be able to better engage, be empowered to plan in a more comprehensive manner, and potentially be more successful in resolving their communities’ challenges. The diagnostic model tool is called the “Engaged Planning Communities Diagnostic Tool.” Item withdrawn by Mark Zulauf (zulauf@illinois.edu) on 2011-11-08T19:00:11Z Item was in collections: University of Illinois Theses & Dissertations (ID: 1) No. of bitstreams: 1 Borich_Genevieve.pdf: 5669243 bytes, checksum: a2f60992d14e5e72404d0e15da513f14 (MD5) Made available in DSpace on 2012-02-06T20:12:49Z (GMT).
