From the Paper:

"Some important information reveals that human resources or human capital is more important to governments today than financial capital, technology and other critical factors. As businesses begin and continue to expand and companies work harder and harder to recruit talented individuals and keep them, government agents must step aside and consider whether their policies and procedures are keeping the good people in or preventing them from coming in. It is critical that the government of Florida provides service to the people living in Florida and the people visiting Florida that meets and surpasses their expectations."
