  • Project Director

    The Breeder's Flock

    (Environmental Services industry)

    October 2001Present (7 years 3 months)

    In 2002 the organization was launched in response to the plight of Hialeah Racetrack and of the flock of flamingos living in the infield. A grassroots effort began as we sought to gain public awareness amongst horsemen and women. A website was created and we walked the backstretches of Delmar, Santa Anita, Saratoga, Keeneland, Churchill Downs and The Fairgrounds racetracks to gain support and signatures from thousands of many hall of fame trainers and jockeys, vets, exercise riders, horse owners, and breeding farm owners. Overwhelmingly these supporters agree that the track and environment and the beautiful and fragile birds should be protected. They all agreed they would love train horses there again! In Derby week of 2007, we handed out 5000 t-shirts with 'save our home' the Breeder's Flock written on them to announce AND raise awareness to the fact that this particular flock is the main source of flamingo eggs for all the Zoo's in the USA, they are the Breeder's Flock!!!

Allison Booth’s Interests:

In a global economy, cultural literacy is as critical to ones’ success as the skills and ideas they bring to the table. Rarely is this lesson as important as in Islamic nations, where the Western business person must be willing to suspend their basic understandings of business to be effective in the local marketplace. That was clear for members of our organization who recently took a trip to the UAE to join up with members of the Persian Gulf monarchy.“Nothing can prepare you for the extent to which the law, religion, culture and business environment are completely intertwined” “Islam governs every aspect of life there, including the UAE state and economy,” “If you don’t understand the pervasive influence of Islamic law, you’ll never understand how they do business.” From a practical standpoint, operating in the global arena requires having respect for and knowledge of foreign protocols.

Allison Booth’s Groups:

In Dubai, the work week begins on Saturday and ends of Wednesday, appointments are generally scheduled around five daily prayer times, and many business are closed in the afternoon. Most real business is done face to face, with far less reliance on documents and contracts than is typical in the Western world; therefore, the time it takes to do business is relative.
