The Dynamic Mesh Network of TRSA
TRSA members work together in focused groups called Innovation Rooms (committees). Active engagement and collaboration of partners form a partial “mesh network” which is an aggregation of work programs that intentionally spread the individual opportunities in a mesh formation among the organizational framework to eliminate silos or other rigid structures that discourage collaboration. The opportunities or programs of interest will be generated organically by the Advisory Council or any TRSA member organization.
