California Assembly Bill 32: Greenhouse Gas Cap and Trade ProgramAlexa Kandaris
The document discusses California's Assembly Bill 32 (AB-32), which established a cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. The program sets a cap on emissions and allows companies to trade allowances to emit greenhouse gases. If a company emits less than its allowances, it can sell the extra allowances. If it emits more, it must buy more allowances. This incentivizes companies to cut emissions in the most cost-effective way. The program has led companies to reduce emissions while the state's economy and job growth continue to expand, showing that climate policy and economic prosperity can be aligned.

7. What is a teaching case study?
• “A detailed examination of singular
circumstance within an organization”
• Story about something real in which a
decision by a leader must be made
• “Something real” brought to the classroom
with all the externals such as various
pressures and considerations to make
decisions
• Opportunity for students to experiment on
real world scenarios
• A device for a facilitated discussion
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 7
8. What is a teaching case study?
• Designed for students who are becoming
practitioners
• A real world story that allows students to
practice critical thinking skills and decision
making
• Is discussion based
• Does not necessarily have a right answer
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 8
9. What is a teaching case study?
• A description of a management situation or
management story
• Case history of symptoms
• Diagnosis of a problem
• Set up for discussion of recommended
actions
o Actions that may second guess what the
protagonist in the story did

10. What is a teaching case study?
• Meeting the objective for your students of
o Conveying knowledge
o Improving mastery of theories and applications of
theory, governance, leadership, cost-benefit
analysis
o Improving critical analysis
o Approaching teaching through
o Stimulating new ideas
o Encouraging creativity and independent thought
o Demonstrated leadership and personal
responsibility
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 10
11. What is a teaching case study?
• Students need to learn to be leaders
who can think critically , create
convincing arguments, and effective
decisions
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 11
12. Why use case studies
• Experiential Learning
o Students learn for themselves by struggling with the
issues that the leaders in the stories face
o Students deeply examine a scenario, use related
assigned readings, and write a paper
• The discussions help students gain knowledge
about a subject
• Use conceptual or analytical techniques
• Good habit of asking “why” through analysis
• Think about leaders’ perspectives
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 12
13. What case is NOT
• Not a lecture
• Not just the teacher sharing information
• Not memorization
• Not one correct answer
• Teaching is not the sole center of attention,
but more of a facilitator
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 13
14. Case Pros and Cons
Pros Cons
Anchored in Experience – There are no right answers
learning “sticks” which can frustrate learners
Learner Based The student owns the learning
process
The learning can be powerful It is harder work than other
and intimate means of learning
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 14
16. Elements of a good case
• It is interesting
• Buried rewards of discovery
• Connects to a wider theory or theme in the course
• Analytical challenge
• It is clearly presented
• Carefully included exhibits
• Teaching Notes
• Answer what the student will be expected to do with
the case
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 16
17. Determining the purpose and
your topic/thesis/theory
• Is there a topic you are discussing in
class like leadership, governance,
cost/benefit analysis you want to test
in the real world?
• Is there a policy issue you want to
illustrate?
• Are you highlighting the decision
making process?
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 17
18. Developing a partner(s) funder
and organization willing to be
the subject of a case
• Organizations agree to cooperate because
o Insight into their own organization
o Want to participate in educating leaders
o Outside excited researchers and students can
stimulate new ideas into their own
organizations
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 18
19. Determining a timeline of
research, writing, editing and the
costs of developing a case
• Be realistic
• Prepare to go back several times to the
organization to clarify assumptions
• Engage an editor
• Get a good set of outside people to
comment on the case; including the
organizations highlighted
• Edit again
• Get feedback from students as you teach
the case for the first time
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 19
20. Initial questions
• What are you trying to accomplish in terms of
fitting into the course?
• Who is the audience?
• What ancillary materials will you develop?
• What decisions need to be made by the
protagonist?
• How much data is useful to move the story
along?
• How long will the case be?
• What is the controversy; the context in which a
decision needs to be made?
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 20
21. Ethics of telling a true story
• If you embellish, be upfront about
it (don’t embellish though)
• Be clear with your host
organization about what your
goals are for the case
• Footnote and document your
resources
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 21
22. Acquiring useful supplemental
appendix info. (e.g. budgets or
organizational policies)
• Samples include;
• Organizational charts
• Financials
• Speeches
• Meeting minutes
• Organizational policies
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 22
23. Getting feedback
• Check Facts with lead organization
• Test to ensure the flow of the narrative
is logical and all the data is in
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 23
24. Acknowledging sources
• End Notes
• Thank You Upfront
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 24

36. Salamon on Nonprofits
“It has been said that the quality of a
nation can be seen in the way it
treats its least advantaged citizens.
But it can also be seen in the way it
treats its most valued institutions.”
Lester M. Salamon
State of Nonprofit America, 2002
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 36
37. Private Nonprofit Sector

50. Introduction to Prisoner Reentry
• President Bush Raises the Profile 2007
• Common Ground on both sides of the
political aisle
• Welfare was about women; reentry
about men
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 50
51. Corrections
• 1st about keeping people safe
• Reentry is not necessarily Corrections,
but some prep work goes on behind
walls such as;
o Drug treatment
o Preparing for the outside
o Handing off information to NGOs
and local agencies
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 51
52. Reentry Is…
• What happens after Jails and Prisons
• Federal, State, Local institutions
• Local matter (jobs, housing, crime,
families)
• Addressing issues facing ex-
offenders…banned from jobs, debt,
period out of the labor market
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 52
53. Authority
Some of the biggest hurdles
that cities and states face are
just defining what reentry is,
and in what agency it
belongs, and who has
authority
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 53
54. Implementation of a strategy
• Less a policy discussion about
what legislatively should be
done
• More about best practices and
implementation efforts
• Implementation is the hardest
thing for public leaders to do –
particularly across governments
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 54
55. Effective re-entry programs the US
http://www.nationalreentryresourcecenter.org
• Quick engagement; work; community corrections; day
reporting center; work release
o Baltimore, Jacksonville, Newark
o CEO, America Works, Goodwill, Ready, Willing and
Able
o Ready4Work
o Delancy Street
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 55
56. Jobs
• Most U.S. reentry efforts pay more rhetorical
respect to jobs, but emphasizing placement
and retention still seems to lag behind
knocking out all other barriers first
• The corollary of this is performance
measurement that hold vendors
accountable for the right things in a
reasonable way
• … and concurrently holds governments to
track what is spent on reentry
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 56
57. Policies
• Changing maximum stays
• Diversion programs in lieu of prison
• Tax Credits & bonding for businesses who hire
• Housing, substance abuse, employment
• Child support forgiveness and enforcement
• State laws mandating behind the walls reentry programming
• Second Chance Act
• Closing prison – diverting funds to communities
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 57
58. Funding
• Govt.
o Federal DOJ & Faith Based Initiatives
o State Corrections
o DOL - Workforce
• Foundations
• Most public leaders are looking for revenue neutral
solutions in the here and now– ones that don’t
predicate savings after some future date when
recidivism has gone down
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 58
59. Did those programs have
statistically significant impact on
decreasing recidivism rate?
• Define Recidivism
• MDRC Study of CEO – Lowered recidivism
• Urban Institute study of Maryland work release
programs
• Manhattan Institute – Montgomery County, MD
incentives program
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 59
60. Lessons learned throughout planning and
implementation of re-entry related policies
• Clarify Expectations
• Set up communication systems among all
agencies and players
• Provide info mgt system
• Share information among agencies
• Track results
• Allow incentives and punishments to work
together (housing, child support, etc.)
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 60
61. Winning over a skeptical public
• What choice do have morally and in
general?
o In the U.S. 90% of offenders come home
o 65% re-offend
Costly
Dangerous
Hurts Communities and families
o Incarceration is expensive 50 billion a year
o Takes people out of the labor market

68. Newark Prisoner Reentry – Follow up
By December 31, 2010, the Newark Prisoner Reentry Initiative, had placed
781 people in jobs. Under the NPRI, five nonprofit agencies that provided
case management, mentoring and job placement services, were
required to meet certain performance outcomes. During the two years of
their contracts, the NPRI reported, these five agencies produced the
following results:
❖ An enrollment of 1360 participants.
The enrollment benchmark was 1340. The NPRI achieved 101% of this
target.
❖ A recidivism rate of 7% percent.
This benchmark was 22%. The NPRI exceeded this target.
❖ A total placement of 781 people in permanent jobs with an average
hourly wage of $9.30 per hour.
This benchmark was 804 job placements (or 60% of the participant target)
with an average hourly wage of $9.00 per hour. The NPRI agencies
achieved nearly 97% of this job-placement benchmark and exceeded
the hourly-wage requirement.
❖ A 71% job retention rate.
This component of the contract focused on job retention for six months,
and the benchmark was 70%. Thus the NPRI achieved this target.

71. Case Memo Purpose
• Practicing direct precise
communication
• Maximum use of limited space
• Quickly drawing the readers attention
to the most essential ideas
• Expresses those ideas clearly
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 71
72. Case Memo Purpose
• Students should read it to get a sense of the
outline; who the main actors are; what is the
important decision to be made
• They should re-read it looking for what is said,
implied, and is missing
• Decide on a course of action and find evidence
in the case and class readings to support it
• Develop a plan to implement the course of
action
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 72
73. Case Memo Considerations
• Who are the decision makers & other key characters?
• What is his or her objective?
• What are the key issues and how to they affect the
decision?
• What is the environment in which the decision needs to be
made?
• What are the possible courses of action a leader can make
and what are the consequences of those actions?
• What is plausible?
• How will others react?
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 73
74. Effective Case Memo Outline
• What does your audience know? – usually
there is a student assignment that asks the
student to act like a staff person to the key
decision maker
• Define the subject upfront about exactly
what you are writing about
• Explain why you are writing the memo –
what is the action you are seeking to
encourage
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 74
75. Effective Case Memo Outline
• Header – Subject of the memo, date, to and from
• State the purpose in the opening sentences; what
are the main points of your memo; and why you
are writing it?
• Quick introduction and background for context
• Short clear sentences; no passive voice
• Clean Inviting appearance

76. Teaching Case Studies –
Facilitating Discussions
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 76
77. Managing a Conversation
• Case method is about the discussion
• The teacher puts the group on the right path,
motivates the students
• The discussion flows from the facts of the case, the
details - to some insights on what happened – to
some conclusions about what should be done
moving forward
• Teachers are to moderate students discussion so that
as a whole group you examine the problem
• Summarize the progress of the conversation as you
move forward
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 77
78. Managing a Conversation
• Determine what are the major issues which the
case is intended to illustrate
• How does it relate in context to the other work
you are doing this semester with your class
• How will you record the discussion
• Keep a list of the traps in the case and ensure
they get raised
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 78
79. Developing a Teaching Note
• A plan for using the case
• Case summary
• Statement of Learning Objectives
• Assignment Questions
• Decision discussion
• Maybe a blackboard plan outlining role plays,
exercises, time allotment for each major discussion
focus
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 79
80. Managing a Conversation
• Teachers need to become experts at the facts
of the case
• Anticipate what questions you want answered
and what questions might arise from students
• Have a plan on how you want the conversation
to flow
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 80
81. Managing a Conversation
• Students prepare for class by
o Understanding who makes the key
decisions
o Determining what the key decisions will be
o The environment or context for decisions
that need to be made
o And to what end – what is the key
objectives that need to be met
o Drawing a conclusion in class or in a
memorandum
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 81
82. Managing a Conversation
• The teacher may give an introductory
lecture on a theme
• The teacher will have facilitated and
recorded the discussion’s direction - a trail
of blackboard evidence
• The teacher will illuminate critical case
conflicts if necessary or play “devil’s
advocate”
• The class case discussion will end up being
upbeat, participatory, and satisfying
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 82
83. Managing a Conversation
• Students will be forced to think about
their own answers
• Repetitive exposure to ambiguous
issues in a case help prepare students
for real world ambiguities
• The class case discussion will end up
being upbeat, participatory, and
satisfying
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 83
84. Review of Performance
Management and Evaluation
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 84
85. Question Zero
• What is your organization trying to accomplish?
• What are your strategies for making this happen
and how are your tracking the implementation of
those strategies?
o What do you know about the feasibility of your
offering…is there a marketplace for it?
o How do you take on work; how do you say NO to
work that is not profitable or does not fit in etc.
o What are your capabilities for doing this?
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 85
86. Core Considerations to Support
Your Brand
• How does your Performance Measurement AND
Management support what is distinct about your
organization?
• Are you proving your authenticity?
• How are you demonstrating it?
• Are you consistent (not in your indicators
necessarily, but in your outcomes and impact)?
86
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012
87. Proving What You Are Good At
• How will your organization know if you are
making progress; what goals are you tracking?
• How will you measure your success? Define
your terms.
• What agreements have you made & what
mechanisms do you have in place to track
data?
• Manage the process &communicate

o Place-Based…focusing on neighborhoods
o Sector-Based…focusing on industries
• Job placement, training, education, or a
combination

108. Funding
• U.S. spent about 17 billion last year
(spending is down after the stimulus) on
Welfare, and more when you factor in
other funding for supportive services for
TANF recipients who work such as
childcare and transportation

• Transparency
• Accountability
6/15-16/2012 Richard Greenwald Columbia University Copyright 2012 110
111. Welfare Policies – U.S.
A Work Based System
• Welfare Reform
• In 1996, President Clinton signed into law
the Personal Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA)
• Temporary Assistance for Needy Families

month) lifetime limit on TANF that applies
to all adults and heads of household
• After receiving TANF for 24 months,
individuals are required to work at least 20
hours per week to continue receiving
benefits

What should Ingrid Johnson do? What strategy should she pursue to achieve Mayor Cory Booker’s vision of helping “formerly incarcerated individuals” to “return home and become successful, productive members of the Newark community.” In attempting to develop a performance strategy for Johnson, you might find it helpful to think about the following questions: What, exactly, should Johnson try to accomplish? What should be the key components of Johnson’s strategy for accomplishing this? How will Johnson (and Booker) know when she (they) have been successful? How long will this take? Who does Johnson have to convince that her strategy has been successful? What are the key challenges that Johnson faces? What are the assets that she can employ? How much authority does Johnson have? What exactly is the nature and the source of this authority? How should Johnson make use of her authority? How can Johnson compensate for her lack of authority? What is your causal theory — the leadership and management mechanisms that, you think, explain why your key components will have an impact?
By December 31, 2010, the Newark Prisoner Reentry Initiative, had placed 781 people in jobs. Under the NPRI, five nonprofit agencies that provided case management, mentoring and job placement services, were required to meet certain performance outcomes. During the two years of their contracts, the NPRI reported, these five agencies produced the following results: ❖ An enrollment of 1360 participants.The enrollment benchmark was 1340. The NPRI achieved 101% of this target. ❖ A recidivism rate of 7% percent.This benchmark was 22%. The NPRI exceeded this target. ❖ A total placement of 781 people in permanent jobs with an averagehourly wage of $9.30 per hour.This benchmark was 804 job placements (or 60% of the participant target) with an average hourly wage of $9.00 per hour. The NPRI agencies achieved nearly 97% of this job-placement benchmark and exceeded the hourly-wage requirement. ❖ A 71% job retention rate.This component of the contract focused on job retention for six months, and the benchmark was 70%. Thus the NPRI achieved this target. http://www.manhattan-institute.org/video/?c=NPRI
