"'Don, your idea about intergenerational leadership teams for economic development is quite interesting. Native Canadiens have had this concept for sometime, although not specifically related to economic development. I'm wondering if there is a simple way to start this process of recognising the value contributed to economic development by various generations. Maybe I should bring my son to the next EDAC annual conference. Or perhaps a retired executive from my town should attend the next meeting. Many retired executives already work with young entrepreneurs as advisors. The simplier the form of this idea, the more likely it will be embraced.'"Jack and I were talking on the phone yesterday and discussed building a diverse network of leaders. A successful economic development network would connect a wide variety of people. A retired business executive, an economic development consultant, and his son are a good start to a network, but only if they can connect with young Latino women, mature Asian men, young African American men, and Asian-Indian men and women, in professional relationships that contribute to the well-being of the community.
