“All cities have one key resource: the special abilities of the people who live in them. You just have to find out what they are.

I advised them to work with these special skills.” PeopleAbilityNumbersCitiesSpecialExampleKeysSkillsResourcesExpertsAustralianSydneyMelbourneAdelaide Author:Charles Landry
“As far as population size goes, big is no longer important, and it can even be a drawback. In fact, the future belongs more to second-tier cities. Any place can become a world-class center today by finding an area in which it outperforms others, by thinking for the long term, by expanding its competitive abilities and by operating globally.” ThinkingWorldLongImportantFactsBigsTodayTermAbilityCitiesClassFindingsAreasSizePopulationLong TermExpandingWorld ClassDrawbacks Author:Charles Landry
