 LEADERSHIP
 SPOTLIGHT
 

Adam A. Dionna, Principal
Stillwater Technologies, Inc.
myregion.org LEADERSHIP COUNCIL

"What is the single most critical issue to Central Florida that needs to be addressed to create a globally competitive market?"

"Arguably the most critical issue facing our region is the creation of solutions to address the numerous issues and inadequacies within our regional educational system.
It is hoped through our shared vision, that the region will view education as an investment rather than a cost. This aspect will certainly dictate how funds are appropriated to create the necessary solutions.
The economic diversity that is inherent through a well trained and educated workforce is critical to sustaining the spirit of our mission in preparing the central Florida region for consideration on a global scale."
