1 Delaware County Chamber of Commerce 2017 Work Plan The Chamber s Plan of Work is its one-year document outlining the work of its committees and the priorities for staff as approved by the Board of Directors. As with all businesses, having a road map for the year keeps everyone focused with programs and initiatives that are congruent with the Chamber s mission. Our Core Values Our vision is to be the premier voice of business as we work with regional partners toward locally-appropriate and forward-looking economic prosperity. The mission of the Delaware County Chamber of Commerce is to help businesses succeed so our communities in Delaware County and the surrounding region may prosper. Toward that end, we support our entrepreneurs by advocating for public policies that create a regulatory environment in which private enterprise may thrive, promote our region as a great place to visit, live, learn, work and play, and create programs that develop our communities and improve our quality of life. We believe that our image in the community with our stakeholders--our members, elected officials, future members, regional partners, and the general public--is paramount to our success. We incorporate our values into our messages and actions. We adhere to these values as a means to establish trust and ensure a positive reputation as an organization that is working to help our members and our communities be successful: Member-centric We appreciate and value that our members are our core existence. Our every decision and action is driven by a desire to contribute to our members success. Collaborative We welcome all opportunities for cooperation and inclusion in meeting community goals. We seek partnerships in developing a common community vision. Integrity We ensure alignment of our actions and beliefs, engage in honest selfscrutiny, develop measurable goals, seek continuous improvement, and do what is right for the broader good. We are consistent and keep our commitments. Leadership We are true to our role as the business leader in our region and a model to others in our community. We use our influence and exhibit the skills of leaders to ensure the success of our organization and our region. 1
