1 Connective Organizations Networks in Southeast Alaska are often the strength and the undoing of our people. Isolation, disconnected transportation routes, antiquated technology, high energy costs, cost of doing business, cultural differences are just a few of the obstacles that bring our people together. We have a very strong native population in our region and that native population although will disagree on specific projects from time to time are certainly a piece that holds our network together. Southeast Conference is another piece; they are able to bring many people from all different facets together for collaboration. Many communities have a chamber of commerce, an economic development group of some sort and a visitor bureau. There is also an extensive arts community throughout Southeast Alaska. All of these groups put together make a very strong network all wanting the same thing; a strong viable economy in Southeast Alaska. Southeast Alaska Business Climate Survey As part of the Southeast Alaska Business Climate Survey, we asked business leaders about how valuable their interactions with other organizations are to their businesses. Possible answers included Not at all valuable, Somewhat valuable, Valuable, Extremely valuable, Not applicable, and Don t know. Business leaders said other businesses in their industry provide the most value to them, 63% of business leaders feel that other businesses in their industry are valuable or extremely valuable. Banks and industry associations such as Chambers of Commerce also were rated highly (see chart on following page). Southeast Alaska Economic Asset Map Page 222

3 We also asked each business leader about the networks with which their businesses are involved. Respondents were asked to check all that apply. According to the findings, the top three key networks that engage regional business are chambers, tourism industry groups, and economic development groups. Lists of these organizations are on the following pages (full contact information is available in the appendix). The regional business leaders also displayed high membership in arts organizations and churches.
