Description
"Cities of Ambition asks why some cities make more of their assets and resources and do better than expected. It explores the landscape of ambitious cities across Europe and assesses their special qualities looking at the pioneers and pathbreakers and how they overcome obstacles and realized their aims. It asks why cities like Barcelona, Malmo and Copenhagen or Eindhoven, Torino and Manchester are so admired as well as smaller places like Freiburg, Nantes or Umea. The central messags are: 'try to be yourself', 'identify and orchestrate your unique resources' 'be willing to look at things afresh', 'be open to ideas', 'acquire and value the new skills fit for the times, such as being a connector or orchestrator', 'connect across the world and become globally fluent', 'develop a leadership grouping', and 'do not think you can do it on your own - collaborate and partner with others'.
