Increasingly, the place you choose to live will help determine your success in business, in finding a life partner, and in living a fulfilling life. In fact, it may be the most important decision of your life. I believe that we are in the beginnings of a shift as fundamental as the industrial revolution was over a century ago—one that will have as dramatic an impact on how people live and work. Furthermore, it will have a dramatic impact on where they live and work.

Fathom's CEO Scot Lowry shares his perspective on marketing, nonprofits, high school, purpose-driven economies and economic development. Presentation from the 2014 Cleveland Nonprofit Marketing Summit.
Nearly every major metro region in America is experiencing great economic stress. Amazingly, stakeholders in every region are disconnected, disjointed and unable to effectively communicate. There exists no common vision, strategy or framework for including and empowering all of the region's residents.
Local innovation ecosystems are fragmented, with leaders operating in their own independent silos. And historically underserved and disconnected peoples and communities are so far behind they are losing ground daily as the explosive growth of innovation hubs and the startup culture threatens to leave them behind permanently.
The Innovation Economy Epiphany Workshop introduces the BIG PICTURE in a way that all audiences can clearly understand. In this workshop, the key issues of a common local vision, common understanding, common strategies, inclusive frameworks and open collaboration are threaded throughout.
But how do we develop a common vision, common understanding, and a strategic approach toward economic inclusion and increased regional competitiveness?
How do we empower those who have fallen far behind to not only participate in the innovation economy but become productive in job growth and wealth creation?
And how can we identify and scale up what's working in each local region?
What role does education play in the "economic future" of each region?
And how do we get local stakeholders to break down the walls of competitive silos to collaborate for the benefit of each generation?
This workshop is an innovative approach to aligning the disjointed, connecting the disconnected and empowering individuals, communities and regions to develop a sustainable pipeline to productivity process that increases job growth and regional economic competitiveness through the framework of local innovation, inclusion and impact.
You will emerge from this workshop with a significantly greater understanding of how your local innovation ecosystem works, your role in it and an understanding of how you can be part of the solution to the challenges your region faces.
This workshop is step one of a process that will open your eyes to a 21st century economic imperative and national vision of Inclusive Competitiveness. It is a must-attend event for anyone concerned about the economic future of their community, region and state.
Immigrant Entrepreneurs: A Key to Rebuilding U.S. EconomyRichard Herman
new powerpoint to be delivered in detroit on 7/18 at the conference, "Immigration and Michigan's Future." Day-long conference to feature Michigan Governor Rick Snyder, NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, major CEOs, President of Wayne State University, and a cast of thousands! The eyes of the nation will be watching Detroit. Can immigrants save detroit? I say --- yes! as part ofa new intercultural team with African American talent and entrepreneurs, and other diverse talent, as we work towards building the most powerful teams on the planet. We hope this conference helps galvanize efforts not only in Detroit and Michigan, but in struggling cities around the country. This city-driven, economic argument should be a MAIN PLANK of comprehensive immigration law reform. We are all immigrants!

Global Engagement in an Interconnected World
*Summarized from a paper by the same title, authored by Dr. John Lee, Associate Professor of Social Studies, N.C. State University
Introduction
A mother sits with her son at a computer. Music fills the room as stylishly dressed kids dance on a computer screen. The scene is a house in the Western African country of Senegal where an encouraging mother is watching a music video with her son and offering her opinion of her son’s favorite new musical group, Rania. The group is from South Korea and is part of a music phenomenon called Korean Pop (or K-Pop) that fuses electronic, hip hop, rock and R&B musical forms. The young man made a video of his mother’s opinion of the group and put it on YouTube. A South Korean musical group, singing music online that emerged in black American culture, is being shared by an African boy on a global commercial video sharing network. How did we get to this point and what are the implications of this interconnected and overlapping world for this young man’s future and the future of young people in the United States?
A certain vision of the future is already here, although unevenly represented around the world. This future is cross-cultural and supported by a global economic system of multinational interests delivered through a decentralized communications network. Young people today are growing up in an interconnected world with access to information through a wide variety of mediums and devices that support the exchange of ideas and opinions. Given that these systems for communication are in constant flux and are being rapidly developed, children must prepare for a future that will look different than the world of their parents.
Trends in Youth Global Engagement
There are six trends that will shape the global engagement of Generation Z over the next decade. Each of them is outlined below.
Trend #1 – The Emergence of an Online Global Identity
Online social networks connect people and create avenues for extending our identity. Identity is connected to our physical being, but increasingly young people are crafting online identities using social networks. Manuel Castells describes this phenomenon in his recent trilogy The Information Age: Economy, Society and Culture. Castells argues that the organization of global economics, political and social institutions prompts individuals to create meaning in their lives through collective action. This explains why networks such as Facebook have become so popular (500 million active users), so fast (Facebook went online in 2004). The attraction of Facebook is the human interaction and collective action that it facilitates. The technology is much less important than the human activities that the technologies enable. In fact, actual interfaces such as Facebook come and go rather quickly (e.g. AOL and MySpace, both with explosive growth and quick declines). These global networks allow people to be free of their “other” identities - ...

Globalization_- Definition, Processes and Concepts.pdfDhruvita1
Globalization is a term used to describe how trade and technology have made the world into a more connected and interdependent place. Globalization also captures in its scope the economic and social changes that have come about as a result.
This is follow-up from the IBM Almaden Sept 27th meeting on "Regional Upward Spirals: The Co-Evolution of Future Technologies, Skills, Jobs, and Quality-of-Life"
Conventional wisdom suggests that to peer into the crystal ball of America’s future, one should go to Silicon Valley to check out the latest start-up unicorns, or to New York or Los Angeles to scout emerging trends in fashion and food.
Middle America, on the other hand, is often described as if it’s on the margins of culture and innovation — “flyover country” — provincial, unsophisticated and stuck in the past. But Middle America is diverse and although it is not stuck in the past —rhetoric about it is.
In Reinvention in Middle America, we put a spotlight on the region, looking at it not through the lens of politics, ideology or outdated clichés but rather through innovation. We look at key cities from Cleveland to Nashville to Louisville and how they’re reinventing themselves by embracing innovation in manufacturing, city design, healthcare, sustainability efforts and clean energy, creatively solving problems that the entire country will eventually have to confront. And they’re imbuing this reinvention with characteristic Middle American values of community, collaboration, and concern for the social impact of their actions.
Yes, portions of Middle America may have a lot of cornfields — but drone-farming is happening there. Although Nashville is still the seat of the Grand Ole Opry, it’s also emerging as a major fashion and design hub. And in Appalachia, a coal museum is powered by solar energy and out-of-work coal miners are reinventing themselves as coders. It’s even predicted that in five years, the Midwest will have more startups than Silicon Valley.
Although it’s easy to politicize and divide America, innovation is not about moving right or left. Innovation is about moving forward.

Climate Advocacy in the Obama Years: Assessing Strategies for Societal ChangeMatthew Nisbet
On September 25 at Boston University, as part of a Howard Hughes Medical Institute-sponsored series organized by BU climate researcher David Marchant, I will be giving the following lecture, drawing on insights from two forthcoming papers. Below are details on the talk followed by references and links to the papers.

Assessing Strategies for Societal Change

This lecture evaluates the contrasting political strategies, communication approaches, and policy options pursued by U.S. advocacy groups, philanthropists, and their allies as they urge societal action to address climate change. Though these often competing networks of groups accept the undeniable, human causes of climate change, they each tend to emphasize a unique discourse about the problem, reflecting diverging views of society, nature, technology, policy, and politics. By reflecting on these differences and their implications, we can usefully think through the many ways that our own biases shape how we perceive the political conflict over climate change, who we blame, and what we prefer to be done. The goal is not to choose among competing perspectives, but to constructively grapple with their tensions and uncertainties. Through this process, we can hold our own convictions and opinions more lightly, identifying what is of value among the ideas offered by those on the left, right, and in the center.

The groundswell of peer-to-peer exchanges across mobile and social platforms empowers people everywhere and anywhere to produce and share with as much authority as they are able to consume and buy. This presentation was developed to explain our SxSW panel entitled: Digital Anarchy: the "bitcoin" effect.
Bitcoin is not only giving banks a run for their money, it threatens to disrupt the centralized power of all sorts of business, political and social infrastructures. Most importantly, bitcoin enables a true "peer economy." This interactive panel discussion will explain how bitcoin is fast becoming a catalyst for change and how the blockchain has the power to uproot a number of our most recognizable dot coms. “The peer economy is inevitable, because humans cannot survive unless we significantly increase what we share as equals.”

At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.

The Most Important Decision of Your Life
Increasingly, the place you choose to live will help determine your success in business, in finding
a life partner, and in living a fulfilling life. In fact, it may be the most important decision of your life.
I believe that we are in the beginnings of a shift as fundamental as the industrial revolution
was over a century ago—one that will have as dramatic an impact on how people live and work.
Furthermore, it will have a dramatic impact on where they live and work. Here’s why:
1. The world is moving to a creativity based economy. The places that succeed will be
the ones that stay ahead of the curve and are able to adapt quickly.
2. This creative economy is based on creative people—not just artists and musicians,
but engineers, scientists, architects, and educators. These are whom I call the creative class,
people who work with their minds to create new things with value.
3. Creative people can live wherever they want. This means the creative economy is different
from the older industrial or agricultural economies, where resources like iron or coal, or
location on trade routes, were what determined business location. The new resource is people,
and they’re mobile.
4. Creative people cluster. They move to places where there are other creative people for them
to interact with. For the past decade my work has been documenting this fact and analyzing where
and why they move, and what factors lead to this clustering.
These four points were the basis of my book, The Rise of the Creative Class, which talked about
these changes in the United States. My next book, Flight of the Creative Class, talked about
these changes on a worldwide scale. This article, and my new book Who’s Your City?, explore these
changes and what they mean for individuals.

Why Some Cities Are Creative Winners
In the 1990s, I was an academic economist at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, studying
urban economic development. And Pittsburgh—despite world class universities, professional
sports teams, cultural institutions and a trained workforce—was one of the new economy’s losers.
Its educated young people left, new industries didn’t form, and unemployment was growing.
I started looking at cities that were the winners and what they had in common. Working with a
team of graduate students and researchers, I identified three characteristics of cities with
dynamic economies that we came to call the Three T’s.
1. Talent. These regions had lots of college-educated people. But we thought there was something
deeper, and what we found was that they had concentrations of people in certain creative
professions, which we named the Creative Class.
2. Technology. The creative economy regions had lots of high tech companies, and they excelled
at innovation (measured by numbers of patents).
Most economists agreed on these measures of success. But as I searched for why some
cities were attracting these people and businesses, we dug into the demographics and came
up with some surprising and controversial findings in our third T.
3. Tolerance. Our research found that the cities that were succeeding in the first two T’s had
a third thing in common—they were open to many different kinds of people, ideas and lifestyles.
The three distinct groups that were identified with creative class cities in high numbers were
Gays, Immigrants and Bohemians (artists and musicians).
I didn’t set out with a political agenda to choose certain groups, although we could hardly have
found three more controversial populations in today’s culture wars. But, in fact, all three T’s were
arrived at using data from the US Census, Bureau of Labor Statistics and other government and
industry sources (for the technology measures). Furthermore, we ran detailed statistical analysis
of this data, compared them historically and looked for other factors that could explain the
phenomena. If you’ve read or heard about the Creative Class, chances are this is what you know.

Location, Location, Location?
The Internet was supposed to make place irrelevant. With e-mail and the Web, combined with faxes,
cell phones and FedEx, we could work from anywhere. A decade ago, there was a lot of talk about
the “death of distance.”
This communications revolution coincided with globalization. New York Times columnist Thomas
Friedman, in his best-seller The World Is Flat, argued that the global playing field has been leveled,
the prizes are there for the taking, and all of us are players—no matter where on the surface of
the world we may reside.
There is some truth to both of these ideas. Modern communications have made it possible to do
business from anywhere in the world. The world economy is no longer dominated by a few countries,
with 90% of the globe relegated to producing raw materials.

The World is Spiky
However, it didn’t turn out that way. In study after study, we and others have found that, in fact,
economic success is becoming more concentrated in a few regions—in the United States and around
the world. Far from being flat, the world is spiky. Talent, economic growth and innovation are
becoming increasingly concentrated in a few dozen regions around the world. Here are some findings
from a few of the numerous studies I’ve done with my team that demonstrate this spikiness.
Far from being flat, the world is spiky.
Talent, economic growth and innovation are
becoming increasingly concentrated
in a few dozen regions around the world.
Creative Class
To begin with, the top creative class cities in the United States in Rise were (in order): Austin,
San Francisco, Seattle, Boston, Raleigh-Durham, Portland, Minneapolis, Washington D.C.,
Sacramento and Denver. These regions are growing and becoming prosperous, even as much
of the country fights decline.
Where The Brains Are
In 2006 I did a study of where college graduates were locating. We mapped the US and looked
at the number of college graduates in each county compared to the national average. In 1970
(the average was 11 per 100) the distribution was fairly even nationwide. Some big cities and

college towns exceeded the national average, and much of the Deep South and some of the Midwest
were lower, but the differences weren’t dramatic.
But, by 2000 (the average was 24 per 100), the picture had changed dramatically. The regions that
were above average had grown, and they were bordered by counties that were average. But the
majority of the country had emptied out. Hundreds of rural counties that had been average dropped
to way below average. More than that, Rust Belt cities like Cleveland and Detroit had plummeted.
There has been an unmistakable migration of educated people to what we’ve identified as the
Creative Class cities.
Going Global
Starting with the work I did for Flight, I’ve been exploring economic growth worldwide. Because
data is collected differently in every country, it’s difficult to get a good handle on the numbers.
However, working with cartographer/researcher Timothy Gulden, my team developed four maps
showing concentration of economic activity and creativity worldwide. (There’s more detail on
this in Who’s Your City.)
• The first map showed population density, based on the Landscan Global Population Database.
As expected, it shows a large concentration in East and South Asia (China and India), Europe,
and along the coasts of North and South America.
• The second map targeted economic activity. This was the trickiest one to capture. We used
a widely circulated illustration of the world at night, with higher concentrations of light
and electricity use serving as a proxy for economic activity. The high points are Japan, two
cities in China, Europe, and both coasts of North America.
• The third map measured commercial innovation, based on numbers of patents registered
with the US Patent Office and the World Intellectual Property Organization. The highest spikes
are Tokyo and Taiwan, followed by a few cities in Europe and in the United States.

• The fourth map located scientific discovery. We looked at where the 1,200 most heavily cited
scientists in leading fields lived and worked. This is much more concentrated and is limited to a
few cities in Europe, the Northeastern United States and the West Coast, with the San Francisco
Bay Area being by far the leading region worldwide.
When you overlay the four maps together, an intriguing pattern appears. With each layer that is
added, the pattern becomes increasingly concentrated. At the base, the population is already highly
concentrated. Most of the world’s people live in a relatively small number of big cities. The distribu-
tion of economic activity is even more skewed; many regions, despite large populations, barely
register (think India and South America). Innovation and star scientists come from fewer and fewer
places still. The world gets spikier and spikier the further you climb up the ladder of economic
development, from producing basic goods to undertaking significant new innovations.
What these maps show is that there are about a dozen places in the US, and two or three dozen
places worldwide that dominate the global economy. Even the famed globalization of manufacturing
is concentrated. We’re not in competition with China for manufacturing; we’re in competition
with Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong. We’re not in competition with India for software development;
we’re in competition with Bangalore and Madras.
Mega-Regions
Another phenomenon is that the world’s economic activity is overflowing regional and national
boundaries as cities’ economic spheres spread and overlap into mega-regions. These large
areas such as Bos-Wash running from Boston to Washington, D.C., Greater London encompassing
almost all of England, and Mumbai-Poona in India are starting to replace nation states as the
world’s locus of economic activity. These largely overlap with the maps of economic activity above.

The Wealth of Place
So far, this discussion has been about economics as they are important to economic development
departments. But wait. Didn’t we start by talking about where you live? What’s the importance
of all this to individuals? Well, a lot. If you’re thinking of relocating, there are several things you
need to consider.
Where the Jobs Are
If you’re a young person looking for career opportunities, you’re aware that old-fashioned company
loyalty is history. So finding a job and moving to it isn’t a long-term strategy. In today’s market, it’s
more important to find a location with lots of opportunities in your field—what I call a “thick job
market.” If you’re in the creative class fields, these are going to be where there are lots of people like
you because, increasingly, companies locate where they can find talented employees rather than the
other way around. Furthermore, new companies are started as spin-offs by employees of existing
companies, and they hire their peers from those companies or elsewhere.
Superstar Cities
Buying a house is the largest investment most people make. And recently this has been pretty
scary, with the rapid run-up of prices and the housing bubble bursting in late 2007. But, interestingly,
where your house is matters—a lot. In a 2004 study called Superstar Cities, Economist Joseph
Gyourko identified 15 US cities that have significantly outperformed the national average in house
price growth since 1940. If you’re thinking of buying a house, these cities would probably be a
better bet as a long term investment than other places. Of the top 15, nine are in the top 10
Creative Class cities (in seven regions, as we treated San Francisco and San Jose as part of the
Bay Area, and Seattle and Tacoma as one region).

Love
If you’re young and single, chances are you’re thinking of finding that one special someone.
If you’re looking for sheer numbers, a 2007 National Geographic map of where singles live showed
that cities in the West had more single men than women, and more single women than men live
in the East. But, if you’re looking for similar interests, then you probably want to look at other factors
such as attitudes, openness, and levels of education in a city.
Happiness
In 2005 and 2006, I conducted a large-scale Place and Happiness Survey with the Gallup
Organization. We surveyed more than 27,000 people in 8,000 communities nationwide and found
that on a 1-to-5 scale, place scored 3.63—behind personal life (4.08) and work (3.98), but ahead
of finances (3.46). We also identified seven factors of community satisfaction: a good place to raise
children, a good place to meet people and make friends, a place with physical beauty, good schools,
parks and open space, a safe place, and a good place for entrepreneurs and new businesses.

Place Yourself
In Who’s Your City, I list a ten-step process for deciding on a new home.
Here’s an abbreviated version:
1. What’s important to you?
What do you like most and least about where you live now? Where are the places you’d most like to
live? Is it important to find a job in your field, or are you thinking of a career change? How important
to you are outdoor activities and nature? Climate and weather? Cultural activities and the arts?
2. Generate a short list.
A good starting place is Bert Sterling’s “Find Your Own Best Place Tool” at www.bestplaces.net, which
allows you to compare communities by cost of living, schools, crime, climate and other factors.
3. Do Your Homework.
Read and gather information. Look at statistics. Read the local papers. Visit and talk to people.
I’m working on a web-based Place Finder, which I’ll be posting when the book is published.
4. What do they offer?
How do the cities compare in job opportunities? Cost-of-Living? Professional development?
Networking opportunities?
5. The Basics.
Are the schools good? The streets safe? Housing affordable? Transportation available, and congestion
manageable?
6. Does the place “Get it”?
What is the political leadership like? Not only now, but historically? Are there opportunities for
citizen involvement?

7. Values check.
Does the place match your values? Is there tolerance of differences? Do people seem to trust one
another? Do people seem to feel free to express their individuality? And how important are these
things to you?
8. Does it Light Your Fire?
What are the aesthetics of the place? Does it have parks, old buildings, interesting stores?
And which of these matters most to you? Does it seem authentic? Does it have unique neighborhoods
or is everything generic? Does it value and preserve its history? Whatever you do for fun, is it
available? Arts culture, music or theater, spectator or participant sports. Find the people who
live there and share your interests, and talk to them.
9. Tally it up.
Remember, no place is perfect. Make a chart of what’s important to you and compare the places
on your short list. Add up the places and compare them. But don’t decide based on just numbers.
Use your chart to choose places to actually visit.
10. Go There
Do you know people who live in each city? Talk to them.
Visit for more than just a weekend. What is the rhythm of the city during the week? Overnight?
Is the noise level alright? Are the streets too empty or too crowded?
Explore different neighborhoods. A city is more than just its downtown.
This is a lot to think about, but it may be the most important decision of your life.
It’s worth the work. Choose wisely.
