2023 Strategic Planning Results

Dear Members and Supporters,

We are excited to share the outcomes of our 2023 Strategic Planning process! After months of dedication, collaboration, and careful consideration, we have developed a roadmap that will guide the future of our organization and its impact on the Pinawa community.

Before delving into the results, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who contributed to this endeavor. Your insights, ideas, and commitment have been invaluable in shaping our strategic direction. Together, we’ve laid the groundwork for a Chamber of Commerce that is primed for success and poised to serve its members and community with excellence.

So, without further ado, let’s explore some key highlights from our strategic plan:

Governance and Administration: It’s our goal to govern effectively and transparently as well as ensure that our internal processes are running smoothly and are meeting current needs.

Membership Growth: Simply put, the more chamber members there are, the more effective our organization can be. More members mean more diversity in knowledge and skills and a stronger voice when advocating for business needs.

Marketing and Communications:  Marketing and visibility is consistently reported to us as a top reason for joining the Chamber. In 2024 we will be focusing heavily on raising the profile of our members by enhancing the visibility of our local business directory.

Advocacy and Leadership: Local businesses, especially small ones need support now more than ever. In 2024 we will be introducing a process by which individual members can put forth resolutions that will be voted on by the general membership, and if supported, will be adopted and be brought to the LGD of Pinawa Council.

Now that you have a glimpse into our strategic priorities, we invite you to dive deeper into the full strategic plan document, available for download here. We encourage you to review it carefully and share your feedback with us. Your input will continue to shape and refine our approach as we embark on this journey together.

In the coming months, we will be rolling out various initiatives and programs aligned with our strategic priorities. Whether it’s networking events, educational workshops, advocacy campaigns, or community outreach efforts, there will be ample opportunities for you to engage and contribute to our collective success.

As we forge ahead, let’s remain steadfast in our commitment to collaboration, innovation, and inclusivity. Together, we will realize the full potential of the Pinawa Chamber of Commerce and create lasting value for our members and community.

Thank you once again for your unwavering support and dedication. The best is yet to come!

Warm regards,

Pinawa Chamber of Commerce
