Escanaba Mayor Tall Seeks Reelection (Thumbs Up!)

The Escanaba Daily Press posted an article, 'Escanaba Mayor Marc Tall seeks reelection to council' and his desire to run again for Escanaba Major. I have been watching the Escanaba YouTube Chanel for some time and I will say that I like what he is doing. That isn't saying I know anything about the other candidates (good or bad) but what I have seen is that he seems to be focused genuinely on developing a stronger community (Leadership Characteristics are important and valued in society where generations can give back.). 

You can watch and get a sense of the different types of discussions that take place during the city hall meetings HERE. People/Institutions interested in investing in this town should understand the landscape and conduct at least an informal Environmental Scan that puts local activities in the perspective of global change (Not saying that is going to happen...its just a discussion on community leadership and environment. Maybe we will get lucky someday and attract additional investment; maybe not.🤷). 

Escanaba is a great place to live and invest. Most of the people genuinely care about their community and do what is best for their town and residents. Opportunities abound for capital development/hedging that ranges in everything from small downtown development/stores all the way over to larger corporate investments (See Information Availability). 

I'm not even saying my readership should trust my judgement (I second guess myself all the time! 🤓) but I believe he is doing a fine and dandy job. There might be other great candidates applying or there may not be other great candidates applying; I'm just saying thumbs up on this one.👍👌 Focusing on developing a great place to live and raise kids is important. 

Knowledgeable leaders understand how economics and business impacts local growth opportunities. Leaders may not know all the right answers but if they ask a range of people who have that knowledge they are much more effective in their own decision making. While we are talking about local issues sometimes looking at large studies can be helpful. A study of 146 countries by Finance Professor Craig Brown in the Journal of Monetary Economics discusses how leadership knowledge improves performance of a country (I suspect that applies to locality as well.)
