Building vibrant communities – with Quint Studer

Quint Studer is the author of Building a Vibrant Community, which we discuss in this episode.  His most recent book, The Busy Leader’s Handbook, became a Wall Street Journal bestseller. He is the founder of Studer Community Institute, a nonprofit organization focused on improving the quality of life in his hometown of Pensacola, Florida. He is also the founder of Vibrant Community Partners, which coaches communities in building out a blueprint for achieving growth and excellence. Quint speaks and works with communities across the country, helping them execute on their strategic plans, create a better quality of life, and attract and retain talent and investment.

Quint also talks about four areas he feels are critical to building communities that thrive, some of his takeaways from his community work, and why small and midsize communities have a great opportunity to lure talent away from the big cities.
