The Strengths-Based Future City

Gilbert Mayor, Town Council, Office of Economic Development


Gilbert, Arizona is one of the fastest growing cities in the nation.

With tremendous growth comes equal responsibility:

How do you ensure future generations will have a stable economic climate to live, work, and thrive in?

Research shows an engaged workforce brings significant gains, not merely to a business or industry, but an entire state.

Leveraging human talent is key to this success – but how to do it?

The questions I asked:

  • How could an initiave in Rhode Island (which grew the economy by an estimated $112M within 3 years) be replicated within the Town of Gilbert?

  • Further… what does that look like when growth is there, but desires of the next generation of workers are rapidly changing?

  • How does the Town support the next generation of corporations and businesses in the coming years?

Part speaking, part hands-on workshop, this day provided a demonstrated approach to strengths-based building and growth.

Takeaways:

  • Discovery of individual strengths.

  • Identification of how strengths function in their current roles.

  • Application of strengths in workplaces, through small group breakout sessions.

  • Application of strengths in future vision-planning and strategy as it relates to the Town of Gilbert’s role.
