Reseña del libro "civic revolutionaries: igniting the passion for change in america ` s communities"
how do some regional communities fundamentally change direction, break from tradition and, in effect, reinvent themselves? why are they able to capitalize on external trends and internal opportunities while other places cannot? the answer lies in a special kind of leadership, borne out of the american revolutionary tradition. the kind of leadership that is different than that of a single individual like a mayor or business leader, or a single organization or even a grassroots collaborative process. it is the leadership of civic revolutionaries who can use transforming ideas to ignite fundamental change in their community. like the founding fathers, these are extraordinary leaders who are deeply committed to place, not just specific issues or constituencies. also like the founding fathers, they provide the spark, inspiring others who must ultimately own the revolution if it is to be successful. featuring in-depth case studies from communities across the country, this book provides practical, tested advice to emerging and established leaders. drawing vital lessons from the american revolutionary tradition and from the concept of creative destruction, this book shows leaders how to become civic revolutionaries, giving leaders at all levels concrete steps to help build stronger regional communities. with increasing legal pressure coming from the state and federal levels, communities realize that they need this revolutionary leadership now if they are to survive.
