Back decks are making us lonely. The West has largely privatized the internal life. We build expansive back decks and avoid our front porches. We connect only if it’s convenient and scheduled. We pull into the driveway, hit a button to open the garage door, and enter directly into our houses without any exposure to neighbors. The very nature of our architecture has reinforced the message of our internal detachment. Is it any wonder that we have a loneliness epidemic on our hands? How does this metaphor apply to leadership? #lonliness #emotionalconnection #healthyculture

Miami Beach’s world-famous Art Deco district is equally renowned for its colorful buildings and the people-watching! But the scenes we enjoy today almost did not happen! You see, by the 1960s and 1970s, the now-famous buildings (many erected as inexpensive hotel accommodations in the 1930s) were dilapidated and in desperate need of repair. Some people thought it would be simpler to knock them down and replace them with high-rise hotels and condos. And they almost succeeded… I was on vacation in Miami Beach last week. On an architectural walking tour of the Art Deco District, I learned the surprising story of how the developers were foiled and the buildings saved for our enjoyment today. It’s an interesting story and… not surprisingly, there’s a change lesson here! What we see today is the fruit of the Miami Design Preservation League. Founded in 1976 in opposition to plans to demolish and build new buildings, they argued that these buildings were in fact a national asset to be preserved. Theirs was not an easy case to make. These buildings were in poor condition. They were not viewed as economic drivers for the local economy. And they were not old enough to be considered notable buildings! The activists fought hard. They lobbied. They leveraged influence. They negotiated. They made deals. And in the end, they prevailed! The National Register of Historic Places gave them a waiver, allowing the 1200 Art Deco buildings in Miami Beach to be recognized as a significant cultural asset. I’m always interested in the ways that people with a positive vision for change can persevere. Of course, they succeeded because they engaged and mobilized their stakeholders. Curious about how you can mobilize stakeholders to support your change process?

Leadership in urban development requires a unique blend of vision, practicality, and collaboration. From my experience lI've learned that the most successful initiatives come from balancing innovative ideas with realistic, actionable plans. It's about fostering a team culture that encourages creativity while ensuring every step aligns with the overall goals and constraints of the urban landscape. Engaging with the community, understanding their needs, and incorporating their feedback are crucial elements that drive sustainable and inclusive development.
