Focus 20/20

Kerr-Tar Regional Council of Governments, in conjunction with our regional partners is pleased to announce a Regional Economic Development Summit, Focus 20/20. The event will feature author and community facilitator, Mr. Doug Griffiths. He is the author of, 13 Ways to Kill Your Community, where he identifies the challenges and opportunities communities face. His book is filled with stories applicable to many cities and towns across the United States.    

Doug asserts our biggest challenge is not that we lack good plans, but that we lack the right perspective and attitudes. That is why Doug helps communities identify what is holding them back from finding success, and then helps them overcome it. Then, he helps to build them back up and works with them to find their pathway to success.

Doug’s passion lies in building strong communities, because within strong communities leadership can succeed, businesses can prosper, and families can find great quality of lives.
