INTRODUCTION from the President/CEO

Welcome to our 2024 Business Plan issue of the Chamber Voice of Business magazine.

The big picture: This is your quick-guide to our 3-Year Strategic Plan (2023-24-25), 2024 Strategic Goals and supporting 2024 Program of Work for each of the Chamber’s divisions.

Dig deeper: Please take time to read it and get to know your Chamber better. You’ll learn how our mission-work benefits you, the Rogers-Lowell area, and Northwest Arkansas region.

What’s next: Vision/NEXT is the theme of our 3-Year Strategic Plan initiative. This is year two of the plan and we’re building momentum!

• It is inspiring our entire organization to be innovative and uncover new ways of doing things. This is essential as we work with new generations of community leaders helping us to achieve our vision and mission. One example is our new brand identity unveiled last year.

Why it’s important: Vision/NEXT is helping the Chamber ensure:

• We are relevant to the next generation of leaders.

• We are competent in this era of rapid change.

• We remain necessary because our mission-work solves real business and community challenges.

• We are sustainable with our long-term funding so we may continue to build upon the solid foundation our legacy leaders created over the last 100+ years.

Serving business & community together: Your role as our partner is to get engaged and communicate with us. We want to understand your needs and priorities based upon your unique perspective and what you deal with daily.

• As an organization that represents business and community, we’re only as good as the feedback and communications we receive from our members. You are the Chamber.

The Mission 5: Your continued support for our mission-work’s five key focus areas – Advocacy & Government Affairs, Community Development, Destination Marketing & Management, Economic Development, and Small Business & Entrepreneurial Development – helps us to be the best of the best as a region, as a state, and as a community.

Thank you for your membership investment. Together, we’re making a big difference.
