Innovating Together: 2012 Communities Collaborating Institute
Community Innovation is about nurturing new approaches to address the social challenges that exist within communities by working together.
How are the collaborative leaders among us to be recognized?
Here we go again. It is the Quadrennial Quest for the next "great" leader of the United States. Are we ready to embrace a different approach to leadership that is a better practice now and in the future?
"Want to" creates much more energy than "have to."
Impact needs to be embedded into the on-going community context -- not just grafted on as a transitory accomplishment.
If there is a source of "blame," it should be resoundly understood as our own diminished expectations of what is possible or worst what is permissable in a society as advanced as our own.
“For success in real estate, the one guideline is ‘location, location, location.’ For community solutions, it should be ‘outcome, outcome, outcome.’”
We tend to reinforce too many people for what they do and not for the results they achieve.
"Like the core of a planet, a clear, strong sense of purpose creates the gravitational pull that will bring people, effort, resources, and commitments to the process."
