Place Rules at Mackinac

Well, the Greater Detroit Chamber's Mackinac Policy Conference is over and done with.... a week over and done with actually. And although there are those that deadpan the event, there are others, such as myself, who find it a unique opportunity to get business done with political, government and business leaders from across SE Michigan all in one place. The agenda and discussion among conference goers this year was permeated with the talent/place based agenda and it actually seems as if business leaders from SE Michigan are getting it. The governor's remarks in particular to a session ending question about place was all about the importance of place in attracting and retaining young talented professionals.
