Sue Arlidge ACEcDAustralian Certified Economic DeveloperCatalyst. Strategic. Influential. Collaborative. Effective.Sue brings vision, influence, energy and deep experience to a wide portfolio of regional partnerships and projects. These collaborative initiatives have established and sustained transformative work across South Australia. As many will attest, it's possible to observe meaningful changes in places Sue has worked in the last decade, including Kangaroo Island and the Adelaide Hills and Fleurieu regions.Complexity and ambiguity can cloud strategic decision making and stymie investment. This is especially true in the face of climate change, biodiversity loss, pandemics, economic jolts and many other natural, social and economic forces that affect people and places. Sue has the ability to sense out and shape opportunity with leaders, organisations and networks as situations develop. Sue goes beyond being a great person in a crisis, to someone who can identify adaptations and interventions to innovate from a place of challenge, broadly sharing benefits with people on the ground and well into the future (often well beyond a project commission or contract has ended).Sue is empathetic and inclusive in her ways of working and balances this with business savviness as a partner in progressive economic development. Her background in the arts and advocacy fits in with commercial acumen that makes Sue an invaluable collaborative partner for anyone with a passion to make a lasting difference in the places they live, play and do business.Advisory roles: Art Museum Kangaroo Island - Non Executive DirectorThe Cliffs Kangaroo IslandKI Water SecurityKiland - Parndana land & housing developmentKangaroo Island Community Club - Black Summer Bushfire Workers Accommodation projectSpecialties: Economic Development; Regeneration; Portfolio Project Management; Resource Investigation; Business Engineering Strategy and Planning; Complex Multi Stakeholder Facilitation and BrokeringWhat is Economic Development https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvsj8Ty4Oiw
