Abstract

This report is aimed at coastal managers in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors at all levels - local, state, regional, and national. However, opportunities for improvements in the networks that facilitate innovation, information sharing, and learning in coastal management require the special attention of its leaders. It is the leaders who can do the most to create a culture and climate that fosters innovation, creative problem solving, and risk taking. The problems and opportunities we face at the coast - thoroughly described in recent reports from the Pew Oceans Commission and the U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy - are looking for that leadership.
