Based in Howie Center (Sydney), Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia and having lived in Northern BC, Rural Alberta, the greater Halifax area and BC's lower mainland, I understand the diverse opportunities and challenges of Canadian communities.
To take advantage of your community's unique strengths you need a plan. Let's get to work with your community, and lay out actionable steps to stand out in today's connected world.
Atlantic Canada is a dynamic region with specific opportunities and nuances not experienced in other parts of Canada. Staying current with political, economic and social trends of this region in particular is therefore important to the success of my projects.
Because our region will succeed together, I am also proud to support the newly formed East Coast Economic Development Association.
Census statistics, geospacial analysis, and demographic data are all common in many economic development organizations. The data now available to communities and individuals is incredible, but often not useful or actionable if not complemented by clear and insightful explanation.
I present data in plain language so you and your community partners can get to work on building your community.
Actionable economic or business development strategies give communities a confident edge as they seek to prosper in today's fast-changing economy. These tools must bring clarity, be flexible and enable a community to build a defendable value proposition and grow local investment over the long haul.
Crafting a business or economic development strategy with a community that engages and inspires diverse stakeholders is not an easy task. It is what can separate a sit-on-the-shelf strategy from one that empowers a community that is ready to roll up its sleeves.
The shelves are full. Let's get to work
Mattheis Consulting specializes in boutique economic development consulting on Canada's East Coast.
My name is Tyler Mattheis and I have over 10 years of practical and professional rural economic development experience in BC, Alberta, and Canada's East Coast. My Canada-wide experience has given me the opportunity to test, evaluate, study and apply a wide variety of economic development initiatives, programs, and projects.
From the project kick-off with municipal staff, primary research and interviews with Key Stakeholders, and through to strategy development and final presentation, I worked as the key face of the project team. In the end, we delivered a focused, tactical, and implementable strategy for the Town of Sackville to focus their resources on appropriate actions to yield tangible results as they work to leverage key strengths and diversify their economic base.
