Time is running out to save 10% on tickets for our Aberdeen City Council Candidate Forum on September 28th! Thanks to our partners, Alpha Media Grays Harbor, Jodesha Broadcasting Inc. and The Daily World, this live virtual event is open to the community featuring ten invited candidates who will answer questions and address the public.
4. Embodying the Cliché’ of “Pivoting” in 2020 – How does an organization that highlights its ability to build relationships and connect stakeholders continue to hold relevancy during a pandemic? Well, you must “pivot” and display your benefits in new ways.
In a short matter of time GGHI staff transitioned to nearly 100% remote with one staff fielding the incoming calls and others distributing their personal cell phones to offer business outreach and assistance. Team meetings moved to Zoom and what used to be in-office communications found a home on Slack. Business Forum Luncheons and Business After Hours moved online and focused on the most urgent topics and provided productive virtual gatherings. Business attraction activities elevated the organization’s well-respected customer service reputation and connections were developed on virtual platforms.
Did we mention it was also an election year? Traditional in-person single-event candidate forums adjusted to FB Live events hosted by media partner, Alpha Media Grays Harbor. In a year with endless surprises and challenges the GGHI Staff and Board have continued to “adapt”, “pivot” and rise to the occasion of these “unprecedented times”.
Thank you to all our bronze sponsors! What a great group of community businesses!
