Why Form This Leadership Council Now?

There has been a decisive call for the Partnership to build on success by establishing a new round of clear prioritiesand actions for the coming years.

Position The Central Florida

Partnership has tackled some of the toughest challenges facing the Region and continues the commitment that was made at formation: listen to leaders, make data-driven decisions, set decisive priorities, unite the Region’s leaders for action, move forward, measure. It works.

A summer of discussions among leaders, committees, and line of business boards makes it clear that leaders are calling for a new round of decisive actions from the Central Florida Partnership and its network of civic partners. We share the sense of urgency and opportunity, and are committed to allocating responsibilities and work to the right teams to the highest possible outcomes.

Statement of Intent

The Central Florida Partnership intends to build on success by renewing its roster of regional priorities and responding to the call for a new round of decisive actions for the coming years.

With the thoughtful engagement of our fiduciaries, investors, all “Lines of Business” (LOBs), and our Community Partners, we will ensure our actions are driven by sound research and data. We will rely on our regional leaders and teams throughout the Partnership to find the right answers; and ensure that we are in a focused and well-structured position to take decisive actions. We will orient leaders to the strengths and successes of the Partnership, and leverage its assets towards success. With the help of a disciplined Leadership Council of regional leaders, we intend to move forward with the following values in mind:

Speed Clarity Simplicity Transparency Early leader engagement

for long-term ownership Ever-evolving diversity of

participation, perspectives, and ideas

Connections between and among all moving parts of the Partnership

Sound execution in existing projects and priorities as we move forward.
