"Think Wisely. Build Trust. Share Success."
The philosopher Aristotle wrote that a city is "a partnership
for living well." This partnership is dependent upon communities
developing their citizens for leadership and service. Leaders
initiate. Ultimately, this is what sets them apart. Others may
share their vision, their passion, and their capacities for technical
and financial management. They may excel in their contributions
of knowledge and expertise. Leaders, though, initiate. They take
the first step of responsibility to create a community where all
citizens may live well.
Citizen Initiative's primary focus is the encouragement and equipping
of citizens for collaborative leadeship inititive with other citizens
and organizations for a better community.
Citizen Initiative
A presentation on how individual citizens can make a difference
in their community. The presentation will provide a practical,
inspiring overview of a successful citizen initiative to illustrate
how any citizen can make a difference in their community. Included
in the presentation is information on:
-
How to envision and organize a Citizen Initiative project.
- How
to organize a leadership team.
-
How to develop a successful grassroots, word of mouth promotion
campaign.
-
How to find and involve sponsoring organizations.
- How
to develop the resources needed.
-
How to work with local media.
Citizen
Initiative Workshop
A Citizen Initiative Workshop is an interactive version of the
presentation. Participants will identify an area of concern or
interest that they will use as the context for learning. This
workshop is ideal for groups who already have an initiative in
mind and are lacking in the knowledge and experience for organizing
a Citizen Initiative.
Either
type of presentation is appropriate for citizens, schools, congregations,
local government agencies, and community organizations.
