Manchester enterprise for
all in words
"It’s been better than I imagined for a meeting with no agenda"
"I’m not lonely anymore! There are others her with similar problems"
"It’s been interesting talking to other people with similar problems"
"In interesting day talking to people with different perspectives"
"It’s good to know I’m not alone, and there are lots of people who feel
disenfranchised"
"I have really enjoyed today and breaking away from convention"
"It’s been an interesting day but no surprise that things aren’t
working"
"I have enjoyed the day but I am left thinking will what’s been said
influence anyone?"
"Considering the amount of passion here, if only we could bottle it and
make the people at the top drink it!"
"There were some groups that worked and some that didn’t, the one that
didn’t was when people brought their organisations with them"
"I have got a lot from the day and been struck by peoples honesty and
courage"
"It’s been really good to see people challenge the status quo in a
non-threatening way"
"It must be enormously difficult to get the right type of support from
the right people at the right time"
"It’s been good but we need to channel all this enthusiasm"
"I want to thank people for their challenges. It’s good for banks to be
challenged"
"I’ve enjoyed today, although I felt time was stolen from me while
typing up flipcharts"
"It’s been a really good day with enthusiastic, dedicated people"
"I’ve enjoyed today, rather than thinking about how others can change I
have picked up some of my own wrinkles about how I can change. Thank
you"
"I’ve been to one session that was good and one that wasn’t so good.
When it was just individuals and their passions it worked well. Where
people brought their organisation it didn’t work so well. We need to
take this positive formula forward"
"People have been amazingly honest and courageous and people got down to
the issues very quickly, it was fantastic to watch"
"I’m left thinking ‘Enterprise for All’ yes, eventually as long as it’s
appropriate"
"I’ve enjoyed the format it seems to release enterprise. It’s all about
power, those with power need to let it go"
"How challenging and exhausting it’s been to be responsible for your own
agenda and this is what its like for people in the community"
"We need to understand the community before we can help re-generate,
other wise we are setting people up for failure"
"I’ve enjoyed today but not when people brought in their own axe to
grind"
"I am a central government employee and I have been very surprised at
all the resources dedicated to regeneration"
"I had doubts about today but I have enjoyed it"
"Trying to unravel what everyone does and working it all out is very
difficult. It made me think we should spare a thought for the end users"
"It’s been a very interesting afternoon, I’ve been very interested by
how different we all are eg age etc but we have something in common and
that is, that life has to change and get better, this is our motivation
for living and working"
"The intention of today is to influence policy-makers, I look forward to
seeing what these comments influence"
"Interesting afternoon, I have two key thoughts, listen and let things
happen"
"It’s been interesting and different. I would have liked pre warning
about what was going to happen so that I could have contributed more"
"What I’ve learnt and contributed has been helpful"
