I agree with Larry that using the term 'industry' when referring to a City parks department doesn't make sense. I often wonder about goals/aspirations that indicate 'we want to be the/a leader....' in the topic at hand. First, we need to figure out what is needed for our community. That is what we should aspire to. Once we aim for that, if we are the 'leader' so be it. Similar with being the 'best' at something. If everyone else is doing poorly, then being the best might not really mean much. It also implies competition. Don't we want everyone to be doing very well?
Leadership is a positive attribute, but it does not in and of itself have merit in the wider world if we don't have a clear idea of what we are aiming for locally.
