    Event Description:
    Focus on the Cause, Not the Club: The Next Investor Model - Speaker - Cathi Hight • How can we create a revenue model that is not dependent on membership dues? • What is the next big idea after the “tiered dues model”? • Why is being essential more important than being relevant? Chambers seek “golden hand-cuffs” or benefits to influence businesses to join and renew. Tiered dues models for membership creates exclusivity, but do not feel inclusive. In communities dominated by Millennials and Gen-Zers, we know that causes attract more people than clubs because a sense of belonging and being part of transformational change is a powerful combination. It is time to focus on our missions instead of membership and move from being relevant to a small group of members to becoming essential to our communities. In this session, you will explore: • Trends that decrease the growth of membership. • The disconnect between strategic planning and membership models. • How to develop an investor model that fosters positive change, provides money for your mission, and increases community

    The Atlantic Chamber of Commerce is taking proactive steps to promote reconciliation and respect for Indigenous rights within the corporate sector. In response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Call to Action 92, the Chamber urges its members to embrace the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as a guiding framework. This entails a commitment to meaningful consultation, fostering respectful relationships, and obtaining the free, prior, and informed consent of Indigenous peoples before embarking on economic projects. Moreover, the Chamber advocates for equitable access to employment, training, and educational opportunities for Indigenous communities, ensuring they reap sustainable benefits from economic development initiatives.

     

    Recognizing the importance of education, the Chamber encourages businesses to provide comprehensive training for management and staff on the history of Indigenous peoples, including the legacy of residential schools, Indigenous rights, and Aboriginal-Crown relations. Emphasizing intercultural competency, conflict resolution, and anti-racism, these efforts aim to foster a more inclusive and harmonious corporate environment rooted in mutual understanding and respect.
