A.E. England Building at Civic Space Park, 424 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, Arizona 85004
On Thursday, December 3 President Obama hosted a summit about job creation. As part of President Obama’s commitment to grassroots organizing, the White House is encouraging community groups across the nation to host their own community forums to discuss job creation in a more local context. Community leaders can upload the results of these meetings through WhiteHouse.gov. The information will be compiled into a report and sent to the Oval Office for review. We invite you to make your contribution to the report by participating in a job forum.
On December 10, 5:00-6:30PM, the Greater Phoenix Economic Council (GPEC) is hosting an Arizona Forum on Jobs and Economic Growth at the Biodesign Institute at ASU. In addition to GPEC, participants include members of the AZ Technology Council, Science Foundation Arizona, labor leaders and non-profit leaders. The focus is to listen to these leaders about what they believe the White House and Congress should do to help create jobs and restart Arizona’s economy.
Given ASU’s role as a socially embedded institution, it is fitting that it serves as the convener of a community jobs forum that highlights how social networks and local community building can lead to job creation in the Phoenix metropolitan area. The forum on December 11 will begin with brief presentations about existing community building efforts in the service and design sectors and the relationship between entrepreneurship and job creation.

Getting local communities to raise ideas and work out how to create job opportunities within their own communities is a great way of helping everywhere at the same time. Then all the government needs to be worried about is the areas that are being hardest hit by the economic recession where the process of finding work is more difficult.
Innovation is the key to long term success in any organization. Innovation and Intrapreneurship create not only new jobs, but new products or services, and strong growing companies As a successful serial high tech focused Intrapreneur (PR1ME Computer’s PR1ME Leasing, Anaconda-Ericsson Finance, Corona Data OEM Private Label PC Div.); Senior Executive at TeleCommunications Inc; and successful entrepreneur creating, building and selling of RETIX, and as an academic scholar (author of “Intrapreneurship Success: A PR1ME Example”) I have personally witnessed the power of Innovation in building successful companies and first had seen them grow from just a small startup to become major NYSE traded companies in just a few years .

It’s time for all of us to get innovative and far-reaching when it comes to creating new jobs. The wealth of intellectually intelligent and creative individuals in this country is beyond comparison. When the call to saving the world from fascism required, we responded, When the world is threatened by terrible contagious and deadly disease, we respond with vaccines and pharmaceuticals.
We have been dealt a tough blow with this financial meltdown, but I am fully confident we will survive. Let’s all put our heads together in these forums called for by the President and never give up.
