Chamber of Commerce Hawaii

Paving the Way: Leveraging Labor Market Insights for Strategic Planning

Chamber of Commerce Hawaii’s Events unite the business community to enhance the state’s economic climate by fostering success for businesses and business leaders alike. Attend or sponsor a Chamber event to promote your company, build brand awareness, market to your target demographics, expand your network and invest in your local community.

Economic trends and workforce shifts can have a direct impact on your business, influencing labor costs, hiring, long-term growth, and operational planning.

Join the Chamber of Commerce Hawaii for an informative session on how economic data and future workforce projections can support strategic decision-making.

Participants will learn to interpret key indicators such as inflation and labor turnover, understand changing workforce demographics and the effects of technology, and explore 10‑year industry and occupational projections. The session will also incorporate the latest DBEDT economic indicators and forecasts to translate statewide and county‑level trends into actionable guidance, helping organizations anticipate workforce challenges, plan for the future, and position themselves for long‑term success.
