Advocacy
Advocacy is at the core of all that we do. We are advocates for both development and for our local business community. We are committed to building and maintaining a positive reputation for the development industry and advocating on behalf of industry stakeholders. Joining BOWDA is joining a community of passionate individuals and businesses who are devoted champions of our industry.
Responsibility
As a community advocacy group, we recognize and uphold our responsibility to our members, our industry, and our community as a whole. We promote the responsible development of homes in the Bow Valley through open, fair, and efficient processes. In keeping with our responsibility, we value transparency, collaboration, communication, and community.
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
Awareness
Another foundational element of our ethos is awareness. We facilitate public education and learning events to further our commitment to transparency and also offer our community key tools to become active participants in the work we are doing. Through spreading awareness, we empower our members and community with key information and resources. In addition, BOWDA members are always kept up to date on issues impacting the industry and the community.
