Another Comment on Inter-Generational Leadership

"Don, thank you for your recent article about inter-generational leadership. It takes us to the next level in thinking about economic development leadership. We have been too fixated on getting the top leaders to bless what we're doing, instead of seeking out creative, hardworking and innovative emerging leaders who can help us by challenging what we do. Everybody in ED talks about being performance-based, but what we really want is a "no questions asked" leadership model. If intergenerational leadership teams can help us create the innovative solutions we need, I am all for it. Is anybody else out there talking about this stuff? If not, you should be looking at ways to get the word out there. I will see what I can do to help you get your ideas out in California."
