occupations and pays double the
average wage of other jobs
• Mild climate, unique natural
environment, active lifestyle assets,
arts and culture amenities, attractive
quality of life characteristics are
important factors for KBE, tourism and
senior living growth
• Inter-modal logistics, transportation
and distribution resources have a
strong foundation in SI
• SI has plentiful legacy and alternativeenergy assets. SI is a coal leader and
is strong in 2 of 4 areas of projected
alternative energy growth by 2030

workforce development resources
• 3 of 4 factors required to support
KBE activity in rural America are SI
strengths

Leadership:
the Key to Success

Is SI worth fighting for?
PEOPLE are the most important Connect SI asset who volunteer and commit
their time, talent and treasure to achieve SI goals
o
o
o
o
o
Selection: Choice of leaders should be based upon active participation in
achieving the CSI Strategy — LAC, COI, cluster & action team leadership should
include a mix of styles, connections and influence (see RA Chp. slides 29-30)
Training: Volunteers should be rewarded with yearly education and selfimprovement programs — provides ROI for participation; enhances leadership
effectiveness; and improves strategic outcomes
Support: Leadership is a volunteer effort that requires staff support to achieve
desired results — CSI staff needs to proactively engage leaders and fill initiative
gaps as identified
Motivation: Volunteer leaders’ efforts are fueled by recognition of their impact and
accomplishments — CSI must regularly highlight leadership and community
progress toward goals and celebrate short-term wins
Focus: CSI staff assist leaders in consistently reinforcing strategic direction,
current status, and immediate tasks at hand — maintaining focus yields better
results
CSI Leaders, volunteers & staff must function as true catalysts
— stimulating the transformation of SI’s economy —

2012: What SI Success
Looks Like


Is SI worth fighting for?
Southern Illinois is the global location where inter-generation active lifestyle families,
visitors & KBE workers choose to live work and play — growth abounds
SI’s historic liability of remoteness and lack of access becomes an asset; instead of
forgotten by Chicago, Springfield and Washington, SI is a land and lifestyle treasured,
respected, sought after and envied — there is only one SI in the World

SI communities see themselves in a new light; they are respectful of their place; they
see themselves as gateways to a land that is "The Garden of The Gods"

Tourism venues, town centers,rural lands, business locations and neighborhoods all
demonstrate by their look and feel that SI is a very special place to be preserved and
enhanced for all time

SI is a place of welcome for people of all cultures whether visiting or living here; in the
land of "The Garden of the Gods” all are welcome and of value

It is a place many want to be, but only the fortunate choose to take advantage of this
unique opportunity; SI becomes a place that is worth a premium, rather than one that
feels it must offer a discount to be desired

The Call to Action
Is SI worth fighting for?
• These Goals/Strategies/Actions are ambitious but
are, in fact, achievable:
• Unless you strive for stretch goals — you will never get
to “adequate”
• The key questions each of you must answer:
• Is SI worth fighting for? If not now, when?
• Are you willing to take control of your destiny?
“Let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear
is fear itself -- nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which
paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance”
