“I think this shows a collaborative spirit and it shows that (Paterson) is listening to the concerns of Long Island,” Alexander said. “We have not seen this level of attention to organizations that really are working on a community level in the past. Past governors been attentive to lobbyists and business interests, but getting to the interests of small businesses, of community organizations and other not-for-profits, that shows a real commitment.”
The "collaboration" part is a good sign.
Now we need to add the "dynamic" part to the "collaboration" part and make sure all voices are heard, both individual and organizational.
Also we should be reviewing and discussing the regional issues based upon a "normalized" data set and flexible analysis standards.
Meetings are great. But if there is no mechanism for follow up and "dynamic" collaboration the meetings will never be as effective as they could or should be.
