Strategic Plan 2023-2025
The Chamber Board of Directors began a strategic Planning project in the Fall of 2022, during which they participated in a strategic planning retreat, facilitated by B Gorman.
Information from our members, gathered in a September 2022 survey, served as the basis for discussions about how to best serve our members, the business community and the entire Big Bear Valley community.

With guidance from the facilitator, the group idenfied the Chambers’ mission, vision and values and further identified 4 key strategic imperatives:
Support Workforce Development – Convene and connect partners to support the development of workforce training and housing solutions;
Influence Community Leadership – Advocate for business interests and foster the development of future community leaders;
Connect Members and Resources – Connect members and the community; serve as a “go-to” resource for the establishment, development, growth and sustainability of Big Bear Valley businesses; and,
Lead Balanced Economic Development – Collaborate with the City of Big Bear Lake and San Bernardino County Workforce Development Board and related economic development groups to develop balanced economic development.
