What's next
To paraphrase Winston Churchill, this report is not the beginning of the end but the end of the beginning.
In other words, the real work is just beginning.
Agenda 360 is intended to be a living, breathing document, a plan that in essence is never complete. It will grow and change organically with the circumstances of our region. The goal is that it guide us past the next decade.
To that end, the effort needs a steward, a group responsible for shepherding its promise to transform our region. And so an Office of Agenda 360, supported by a diverse group of volunteer leaders, will live within the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber with the following commitment to the residents of Southwest Ohio.
- Tracking and reporting progress on the Agenda 360 goals. This includes maintaining the cincinnati360.com Web site, producing an annual report and creating comparisons of our progress to benchmark cities.
- Engaging and connecting all the project partners who are listed on page 30 and working to achieve the project outcomes.
- Engaging and informing he community.
- Developing a "master narrative." We will work together to show our civic pride and collective will by weaving the unique threads of our many communities into a shared story of prosperity for the region.
The mission of Agenda 360 is to build talent, jobs and economic opportunity for all who call our region home. All of us share interest in and responsibility for its success.
Let's seize this moment and make it happen.
