Once the creative process has started, ideas have turned into plans, and there are high expectations about what can be achieved, the Association faced the dilemma of fast profiting, by catching all product available (altought at lower price per unit), or long term profiting, establishing a catch-limit in order to ensure the availability of high quality product (better valued, and allowing black shell population to meet its life cycle).
Since the second alternative seemed more rational for members, the had to design the tool to manage the catch limit. The solution was to set the catch-size 2 millimeters above the legal limit to catch, and to adopt some several regulations into their rules of procedure. That is, to pass from some crazy ideas to a disciplinated implementation with strong sanctions ( monetary and suspension of the fishing rights of the members) aprooved by the total of the members.
Strong comunity and associative principles allowed to adopt mature decisions, even those perceived as too restrictive.
The certainty that in order to achieve a better future, changes in their way of living must be done.
To be confident into their propositions, and to not be afraid of the uncertainty of their decissions.
Disciplined implementation is a key factor.
Rotate the responsibility of administrative management allows most of them to understand the importance of control role and to respect eachother, reducing unrest potential.
