"The               reason               people               find               it               so               hard               to               be               happy               is               that               they               always               see               the               past               better               than               it               was,               the               present               worse               than               it               is,               and               the               future               less               resolved               than               it               will               be."               -               French               Writer               and               Film               Director               Marcel               Pagnol               Polishing               the               Gem               City
               For               the               first               half               of               the               20th               Century,               Dayton,               Ohio               was               a               booming               metropolis.

The               industrial               revolution               changed               the               course               of               the               city               and               its               surrounding               neighbors,               steering               them               to               become               one               of               the               largest               automotive               manufacturing               centers               in               the               Midwest.
               The               automotive               industry               helped               to               define               the               Gem               City's               place               in               Ohio's               economy,               employing               thousands               and               providing               a               blueprint               for               technological               advancements               ranging               from               the               most               basic               electric               motors               to               historic               innovations               in               aviation.
               Today,               abandoned               factory               buildings               in               Dayton               and               Moraine               serve               as               deteriorating               reminders               of               a               once               thriving               economy               -               but               what               about               tomorrow?

What               will               the               next               generation               have               to               look               forward               to?

What               will               Dayton               be               like               a               century               or               so               from               now?

That's               a               tough               question               with,               unfortunately,               no               clear               answer.
               Most               experts               caution               against               unrealistic               expectations               of               a               rapid               economic               recovery               anywhere               in               the               country,               including               Dayton.

At               the               moment,               however,               initiatives               are               underway               to               redevelop               abandoned               manufacturing               facilities               and               expand               research               and               development               programs               at               Wright-Patterson               Air               Force               Base.
               The               City               of               Moraine               was               one               of               the               hardest               hit               when               General               Motors               shut               down               its               last               manufacturing               facility.

The               company               essentially               abandoned               300               acres               and               more               than               4               million               square               feet               of               vacant               space,               including               the               main               plants               and               supplier               buildings               and               city               officials               have               already               taken               the               first               steps               to               redevelop               the               site.
               Michael               Davis               is               the               Economic               Development               Director               for               the               City               of               Moraine.

He               is               confident               that               Moraine               will               find               new               tenants               for               the               GM               sites.

"Our               Plan               moving               forward               is               well               outlined,"               Davis               said.

"We               were               successful               in               securing               US               Department               of               Commerce               Economic               Development               Administration               (EDA)               grant               funds               to               complete               a-               Comprehensive               Economic               Development               Strategy               (CEDS)."
               "The               process               is               a               month               and               half               in               and               will               take               six               months               to               complete,"               Davis               added.

"The               expectations               include               a               marketing               plan,               site               selection,               prospect               development,               workforce               development               initiatives               and               site               specific               redevelopment               strategies               for               the               former               GM               site."
               "The               expectation               of               the               CEDS               is               to               provide               a               road               map               for               how               we               move               forward               both               as               a               region               and               site               specifically               with               the               plant               properties."               Davis               also               pointed               out               that               Moraine               is               collaborating               with               other               municipalities,               including               Dayton,               in               making               plans               to               attract               new               industries               to               the               area               as               well               as               continue               working               with               the               businesses               that               are               still               here.
               Moraine               is               not               alone               in               its               efforts.

Dayton's               city               officials               are               also               working               on               the               problem.

According               to               Dayton               Mayor               Rhine               McLin,               "The               closing               of               NCR               was               a               surprise,               but               we               have               all               known               GM               has               been               dying               in               this               area               for               40               years.

We               have               been               turning               the               ship               in               a               different               direction               for               some               time,               but               the               public               losses               were               greater               than               what               they               see               we               were               doing."
               McLin               said               that               Dayton               has               four               basic               assets               that               will               help               attract               new               business               and               industry               to               the               region.

"Water               is               our               number               one               asset,               universities               are               an               asset,               health               care               is               an               asset,               arts               and               entertainment               are               assets."               She               added               that               Wright-Patterson               Air               Force               Base               (WPAFB)               is               also               a               prime               asset               to               the               area               and               she               and               her               colleagues               hope               that               new               programs               at               the               base               will               help               restart               Dayton's               economy.
               "Wright-Patt               already               employs               23,000               people               and               with               BRAC,               we               will               probably               have               more               jobs               coming               in               there,"               McLin               said.

"We               are               working               with               all               our               partners               in               the               region               to               be               sure               that               the               Dayton               region               becomes               the               aviation               and               aerospace               hub,               it               is               a               natural               fit               for               this               region."
               BRAC               is               the               2005               Defense               Base               Closure               and               Realignment               Commission               established               by               Congress               to               ensure               the               integrity               of               the               base               closure               and               realignment               process.

As               military               installations               are               reorganized,               closed               or               expanded,               BRAC               serves               as               oversight               to               the               entire               process.
               The               realignment               of               these               facilities               can               drastically               affect               the               surrounding.

Fortunately               for               Dayton,               BRAC               changes               at               WPAFB               will               result               in               about               1,200               new               jobs,               approximately               half               of               which               are               civilian.

Additional               projects               and               facilities               on               the               base               have               also               sparked               new               civilian               projects               in               the               area.
               Led               by               the               University               of               Dayton               a               new               facility               called               Tech               Town               recently               opened               on               the               site               of               the               old               Harrison               Radiator               plant               in               Dayton.

The               facility               will               be               used               by               the               Institute               for               Development               Commercialization               of               Advanced               Sensor               Technology,               or               IDCAST               (www.idcast.com),               to               conduct               advanced               and               critical               sensor               research               in               collaboration               with               the               AFRL,               various               academic               facilities               and               private               industry.

Of               course               job               prospects               with               WPAFB               are               not               limited               to               BRAC               realignments.
               A               major               employer               in               the               Dayton               area               for               decades,               WPAFB               has               many               employment               opportunities               available               to               civilians.

According               to               Darryl               Mayer,               a               spokes               person               in               the               WPAFB               Office               of               Public               Affairs,               "People               can               often               find               the               process               of               applying               for               a               federal               job               at               the               base               somewhat               intimidating."
               "People               who               are               interested               in               civilian               employment               on               the               base               should               visit               the               Office               of               Personnel               Management               web               site,               www.usajobs.com,"               Mayer               said.

"The               site               lists               current               jobs               and               application               procedures               for               positions               throughout               federal               government."               Mayer               said               the               application               procedure               is               generally               what               frightens               off               job               seekers.
               "It               is               a               very               involved               process,"               he               said.

"There               is               a               specific               format               for               everything,               even               your               resume,               which               must               be               followed               precisely."               Mayer               said               that               if               people               are               willing               to               do               the               work,               it               might               just               pay               off.

Mayer               suggested               that               anyone               interested               in               applying               for               jobs               with               the               U.S.

               Would               You               Like               Fries               With               That?
               While               Wright-Patt               might               offer               immediate               opportunity               for               some               people               there               will               still               be               thousands               of               displaced               workers               around               the               Dayton               area               struggling               to               find               a               secure               position               in               the               region's               economic               rebirth.

Many               will               be               confronted               by               the               need               to               acquire               new               skills               in               order               to               be               competitive               with               younger,               more               educated               candidates.
               Dr.

Jeanette               Davy               is               a               professor               of               business               management               at               the               Raj               Soin               College               of               Business               at               Wright               State               University.

"I               have               worked               with               a               number               of               high               tech               companies               in               the               area               as               well               as               manufacturing               companies               that               have               been               here               a               long               time,"               Davy               said.
               "The               biggest               problem               these               companies               face               is               a               lack               of               people               with               the               right               skills               and               education               for               the               new               jobs."               Davy               also               mentioned               that               the               last               employment               estimate               she               reviewed               from               the               Dayton               Chamber               of               Commerce               reported               20,000               positions               that               went               unfilled               because               candidates               lack               the               proper               skills               to               do               the               work.
               With               revenue               down               and               companies               doing               everything               they               can               to               streamline               operations,               employer-provided               training               and               tuition               reimbursement               may               not               be               an               option.

Job               hunters               who               are               interested               in               a               particular               position               should               contact               the               employer               directly               to               find               out               what               educational               background               is               required.

If               more               training               is               needed,               check               with               a               community               college               or               the               county               department               of               jobs               and               family               services               for               possible               financial               assistance.
               In               addition               to               upgrading               technical               skills,               some               people               will               have               to               brush               up               on               the               etiquette               of               business               and               how               to               make               themselves               stand               out               in               an               interview.

Like               the               saying               goes,               there               is               only               one               chance               at               a               good               first               impression.

That               first               impression               could               mean               the               difference               between               a               high-paying               job               with               an               engineering               firm               or               flipping               burgers               at               a               fast               food               joint.
               Once               employed,               the               individual               needs               to               know               how               to               behave               in               order               to               keep               the               position               and,               indeed,               progress.

Leah               Hawthorn               is               an               expert               in               this               area.

"Eighty-five               percent               of               the               reason               you               get               a               job,               you               keep               a               job,               and               get               promoted               is               because               of               your               social               and               people               skills,"               she               said.
               Hawthorn               is               a               certified               business               image               and               etiquette               coach               and               owner               of               Advanced               Business               Image               &               Etiquette               in               Dayton.

She               suggested               that               people               who               lost               a               manufacturing               job               will               most               likely               need               to               look               for               work               in               other               industries               and               different               work               environments.

That,               she               said,               will               require               some               adjustment               on               their               part.
               "Candidates               have               to               be               able               to               walk               into               the               interview               with               confidence               and               know               how               to               enter               the               room               properly,"               Hawthorn               said.

"They               need               to               know               how               to               dress               properly               for               that               interview,               how               to               make               eye               contact               and               use               their               other               soft               (people)               skills."               Knowing               the               right               people               can               also               help               advance               a               career.
               "In               a               professional               business,               networking               is               the               key,               Hawthorn               said.

"Take               the               initiative               and               utilize               social               networking               on               the               internet,               like               LinkedIn,               that's               the               way               everything               is               going."               She               noted               that               people               are               now               using               social               networking               sites               to               post               resumes               and               advertise               their               skill               set               to               potential               employers.
               Networking               is               a               concept               that               is               well               known               by               Miami               Valley               business               professionals.

As               small               businesses               begin               to               take               a               greater               market               share               in               regions               that               have               lost               major               companies,               people               from               every               industry               are               using               various               networking               techniques               to               grow               their               business               and               to               find               potential               job               candidates.
               Dedicated               networking               groups               like               Business               Network               International,               or               BNI,               have               become               a               popular               and               economical               way               of               marketing.

Unlike               a               chamber               or               civic               organization,               BNI               is               a               professional               networking               and               business               referral               organization               specifically               designed               to               help               members               increase               their               network               without               internal               competition.
               With               more               than               5,900               chapters               world-wide               to               date,               BNI               was               started               in               1985               by               networking               guru,               Dr.

Ivan               Misner.

The               membership               serves               as               an               extended               sales               force               to               business               professionals               in               each               chapter.

Entrepreneurs               and               sales               professionals               meet               weekly               to               educate               each               other               on               what               type               of               clients               they               are               interested               in               meeting               and               then               work               together               to               turn               those               referrals               into               closed               business.
               Several               of               the               chapters               in               the               Dayton               area               have               seen               rapid               growth               over               the               last               year.

Steve               Teska               is               the               co-executive               director               of               BNI's               southwestern               Ohio               region               (www.bni-ohio.com).

"Our               chapters               have               grown               on               average               from               18               to               22               in               the               past               six               months,"               Teska               said.

"Small               businesses               are               looking               for               a               cost-effective               way               to               promote               and               grow               their               business."
               At               an               average               cost               for               membership               under               $400               per               year,               the               investment               can               be               returned               often               by               a               single               sale.

Smaller               companies               are               often               noted               by               experts               as               the               foundation               for               larger               markets.

If               that               is               true,               then               making               the               right               financial               choices               on               Main               Street               will               help               to               re-direct               the               future               economy               of               the               Miami               Valley.
               A               Penny               Saved
               Business               owners               are               not               the               only               people               who               will               be               looking               ahead.

In               the               future,               the               general               public               will               grow               even               more               cautious               when               it               comes               to               spending               and               investing.

As               the               value               of               investment               savings               and               company               pensions               continue               to               roller               coaster,               individuals               who               may               be               losing               a               job               need               to               be               even               more               careful               about               planning               for               the               future.
               "People               who               are               changing               jobs               or               those               who               have               lost               jobs               have               a               very               important               decision               to               make               regarding               their               401(k),"               said               financial               advisor               Dan               Wolodkiewicz,               owner               of               Pinnacle               Financial               Associates               in               Beavercreek.
               Wolodkiewicz               (pronounced               wal-oh-kay-witz)               has               one               important               piece               of               advice               for               people               who               are               leaving               a               job               with               an               established               retirement               plan.

"Whatever               you               do,               don't               "cash               out"               because               you               could               end               up               losing               close               to               half               of               the               value               when               you               consider               the               taxes               and               penalties               that               may               be               involved."
               "The               downturn               in               the               equity               (stock)               market               was               severe               in               the               4th               quarter               of               2008               and               the               1st               quarter               of               2009,"               Wolodkiewicz               noted.

"Those               who               had               a               large               portion               of               their               investment               portfolios               in               equities               likely               were               the               most               adversely               affected."
               There               is               also               a               popular               consensus               among               analysts               that               employers               will               continue               to               reduce               health               and               retirement               benefits.

In               the               near               future,               workers               may               hold               sole               responsibility               for               retirement               and               medical               plans               -               even               if               the               Washington               continues               its               efforts               towards               government-controlled               health               care.
               The               next               few               years               will               be               crucial               to               anyone               trying               to               save               for               retirement               or               other               future               financial               security               and               rebuilding               lost               money               will               take               planning               and               time.

Wolodkiewicz               advised,               "Seeking               out               a               financial               advisor               may               be               a               good               idea               for               many               people               who               are               faced               with               this               decision."
               Experts               cannot               seem               to               agree               on               how               long               it               will               be               before               the               recession               is               officially               over.

But,               from               the               point               of               view               of               those               still               searching               for               jobs               or               trying               to               fend               off               foreclosures,               there               is               no               end               in               sight.

Still,               the               future               is               not               yet               written               and               there               is               still               more               to               be               done.
               The               Dayton               area               had               not               seen               such               a               major               socioeconomic               change               since               before               the               industrial               revolution.

Endless               debates               on               why               and               how               it               all               happened               are               pointless.

The               goal               now               is               to               get               things               rolling               again.

The               success               of               the               next               generation               will               be               determined               by               what               people               do               today               to               move               forward.
