taking decisive action through Strategic partnerships
Great cities ensure that no good opportunity is lost and no challenge evolves into crisis. In both cases, chances of success are enhanced through the coordination
of effort and resources that comes with partnership and alignment. Successful business and community economic development requires us to be nimble both in identifying an opportunity or a challenge and then acting on it.
Taking decisive action through strategic partnerships on opportunities and challenges will be one of the drivers of success of this strategy and a key factor in determining the pace of future growth in the Halifax economy. A research and a response capability will allow us to identify and deal with critical opportunities and challenges and will include:
- Using competitive intelligence techniques to identify issues affecting our economy, our companies and our community.
- Doing the analysis to understand the scope and implications of the challenge or opportunity and prescribing best practice tactics and approaches for dealing with them
- Developing an action team approach to every critical challenge and opportunity
