Result of giving strategic partner all of your energy 36:55 Second Question/comments Council Member Chris Roberts Mark, thank you for all the work you’ve done on this program, I think that it is a great success. …I would encourage the city to continue this program; I think it’s a great program for the businesses in Shoreline, and for the future of our economy. 37:40 Comment Robert Olander, City Manager I wanted to thank Mark. Mark is the spark plug of this program, and the energy and the driving force…and his energy and enthusiasm are contagious, and Mark’s been a great advocate and mentor and enthusiast for the program, and the success of the program is directly due to all Mark’s energy. Thank you very much, Mark. 38:05 Final comment by Mayor Keith McGlashan He has a little energy, in case you couldn’t tell. Thank you, Mark.
The simple secret I was sure didn’t exist… If you develop strategic partners with complimentary goals and plans: Your risks will be mitigated, you will find opportunities for change, you will have doors opened for you and you will have a stronger foundation to grow and expand your program.
