DIG IN:
TAKEAWAYS: 1 - Detroit is more of a organic bottom up example of reinvention, not process and top down approach. This process is wholly transferable to other communities. 2 - Detroit’s struggle with changing times may be more public than others, but it is not unique. Many individuals and organizations are in the same spot and need to rally together to embrace the new. 3 - A crisis isn’t the only time to be seeking change. It’s okay to create a little chaos in the face of stability. 4 - Employees have to share the vision and own their part of it if in order to be successful. |
