Making the Most of Opportunities in Texas

Strategic Doing got its start more than two decades ago in the world of economic development. It’s since broadened to almost every domain and kind of organization - anywhere there are people who realize they need to find a way to get things done when there’s no one that can truly call all the shots. In this episode, we return to Strategic Doing’s roots, through hearing about the journey of one economic development organization,TexAmericas, in Texarkana - right on the border of Texas and Arkansas. It’s a place where collaboration is not an option, it’s an imperative. Eric Voyles, the Executive Vice President and Chief Economic Development Officer of TexAmericas, chose to use the Strategic Doing approach more than a year ago and we talk about what's happened since then and what's next.
