So the teams I've been involved with (Pennsylvania and California)
have regional segments within the state team, and with Pennsylvania we
went as far as having regional "leads" - so Philadelphia had a lead,
Harrisburg, etc. This worked out very well for us, we had the
cohesiveness of all being in the same state to share mailing list,
approval and LTP resources so we could all see what others were doing,
but each leader of those regions also had autonomy to plan their own
things.

Do you think this could work for teams you're working with? If not,
what needs are not being met that we can discuss?
