IDM then provides your community with recommendations and next steps for enhancing cooperation and collaboration among your development entities, such as chambers, economic development organizations and main street organizations.

IDM will also aide your organization’s board of directors (and staff) with an executive director transition, succession planning, and/or continuity planning. Leadership transitions are inevitable. Whether it's due to retirement, career changes, or other circumstances, preparing for leadership changes is crucial for the continued success and sustainability of any organization.
