Ten Actionable Takeaways for Economic Developers Build tight relationships across agencies to speed project approvals. Use small-scale networks to your advantage: connect decision-makers quickly. Develop a reputation for trustworthiness--bad actors get noticed fast. Create systems where a single text or call can move a project forward. Prioritize collaboration over silos; success requires every stakeholder. Emphasize speed to prospective investors--it's a competitive advantage. Highlight cultural strengths (community-mindedness, shared goals) in pitches. Streamline processes wherever possible; eliminate "waiting on someone's desk." Recognize the risk of reputation spread--protect your credibility at all costs. Translate small-state agility lessons into big-state or regional contexts. Special Guest: Rich Garman.
