Speaking of developing, attracting, and retaining talent, Rich Harwood, a nationally recognized expert in helping citizens lead change in local communities is coming to Detroit this summer to do just that. Here’s a message from Rich…
Across Michigan people are stepping forward to help create change for our communities. We wanted to share with you an opportunity to join with others from across the state and across the country working to create change and make hope real in their communities.
The Harwood Institute has, for 20 years, worked to help people create lasting and meaningful change in their community. While other national groups have decided to abandon, Detroit, Harwood is stepping forward. They are bringing the 2009 Harwood Public Innovators Lab to Detroit this Summer – June 2-5. The Lab is a highly focused 3 ½ day learning experience for cultivating the sensibilities and practices of public innovators to create change and authentic hope through the applications of the Institute’s ideas, frameworks, and tools.
Click here to learn everything you need to know about the Lab and how to register. The regular fee for the Lab is $995, but if you register before April 15, 2009, you pay only $950. There is also a special rate for group registrations from the same organization. If you have additional questions or need help with registration, feel free to contact Ann Hayward at 301.656.3669.

This reminds me of the Dan Mulhern ads aimed at public officials in Wayne County before his wife became Attorney General….And they used public money to attend. Oh AUTOWORLD, where art thou!?
I remember when the Mott Foundation brought the Harwood Institute to Flint a few years back. It was really good.
