Placemaking is something i have been doing to Activiate My community. Here are some examples. see pages on Place making for more.
I love working with the larger community.
You can learn so much from others and hone your skills in creating an atmospher of cooperation. You really can get stuff done together.
Tip:
Hone your listening skills and make sure there isnt one person more important than another. sounds simple right!! Try it and we can compare notes.
