Why Your City Matters to Your Business

 
Have you ever found an article that describes almost exactly what you have been trying to say? This happens to be one of those articles. Steven Pedigo, the Vice President of Communications for Initiative for Competitive Inner City wrote an article titled “Why Your City Matters to Your Business” which outlines five reasons why a city makes a big difference to the success of your business. It just so happens that the five reasons that Steven identified line up with the pillars of Vision 2020 and the priorities that we have set to accomplish.
 
In the article, Steven states, “Your people – not your products or technology – are the driving force of your business, and talented workers go where the opportunities are.” The city you live in has an extensive impact on you and the business you either work for or own. It is critical to our region that we focus on our workforce and that we continually meet their expectations and needs which directly align with our mission of Developing, Attracting and Retaining Talent.
 
Please read the article, it truly is enlightening.
 
Until next time,
