Smart communities, firms and organizations today understand that sharing and collaboration changes everything and grows the economy! One must shut off the compete at all cost part of our brains to work for and be accountable for the common good. It is the rewiring of our brains for the new paradigm of competiveness.
Our stakeholders, the merchant community in Chemainus, indeed our fellow Chemainus and world citizens can help us grow the business in Chemainus BC. Vancouver Island.
The CBCBIA is all about community building.
The dominant thinking we often hold is one of deficiencies, interests and entitlement. That we have a set of problems to be solved and why don’t “they” fix it or do this or that.
Lets instead restore the experience and vitality of our community, recognize our various interest groups instead of our individual wants, unresearched opinions and needs and bring the right people in the room to talk about possibilities and opportunities. Lets not have plans and ideas sitting on a shelf but lets take ACTION and then look at how we can make it even better the next time.
We understand, indeed know, that conversation about possibilities builds relatedness and belonging and leads to transformation and economic growth. So please pitch in and give us your constructive idea’s and observations.
We know you like to be informed and want to see progress and this site delivers it: 24/7 Information and input: This blog will inform the BIA stakeholders – membership what is happening in town and what the BIA board is working on in order to improve and market the designated business area in Chemainus.
The site is focused on giving stakeholders and merchants the opportunity to submit input, share ideas and observations; in short communicate with the C.B.C.B.I.A. board. Link to Information for stakeholders .
Thanks Lou for starting a blog so we can all contribute our input. At a meeting today I found it was far more important to speak up rather than sit quietly as it appears a lot of people feel the same way I do on a lot of issues. Working together is far more important and I hope that we all can learn to use a blog or any other number of communication tools to move ahead as a cohesive unit…at the very least, a business community that is informed.
My question for this Welcome article is what are “google and wiki” focused ideas? Help dummy it down a bit for me please…

Thanks for the information.
Thanks for the information on show and shine too. As you can see or probably already experienced, it’s important to have these ideas out in the open for discussion and communication of facts rather than rumors.
