Soft Skills in ED

I cannot emphasize enough the need for economic developers and their boards to work on their own "soft skills" development.

People must learn to trust, work together, understand themselves and others, compromise, and overcome differences if they are going to succeeded in economic development.

I have three clients right now where these issues will make or break their ability to succeed.

I will be writing more about this subject, but wanted to set the stage for things to come.

Everyone needs to increase their collaborative advantage to compete!
