“The overall goal is really brain gain,” Movers & Shakas Director Nicole Lim said. “How to tie people into Hawaii for the good of Hawaii. It's really about finding needle movers who can have a large impact.” civilbeat.org/2022/01/hawaii…
Mahalo, Carl Bonham, Founder of UHERO and Economics Professor, for highlighting our program during the latest @pbshawaii Town Hall in our effort to reverse the Brain Drain of Hawaii professionals and bringing kamaʻāina home.
In light of the surge in COVID-19 cases, shortage of med resources & Gov Ige urging visitors to stay away thru October, we've made the decision to postpone Cohort 2 until January. The health & safety of our cohorts, team, partners & community are of utmost importance to us.
Cohort 1 Fellow Teddy Liaw, CEO of NexRep, teamed w/ Hawaii’s St Dept of Business, Economic Development & Tourism to bring remote call center jobs to Hawaii residents! A great example of M&S connecting w/ local ecosystem to create meaningful impact. nexrep.com/hawaii-opportu…

Some people ask how @MoversandShakas contributes to economic diversification. In my mind, this is how: By creating human connections to remote industry, and giving local talent a path to the national stage. Waipahu students with paid remote tech internships *already* is huge.

"Charles Salas, a security engineering manager at Exelon Corp., who came to Hawaii as part of the initiative, called it a “win-win” after he was able to convert his mentorship of students at Waipahu High into the creation of paid virtual internships.” civilbeat.org/2021/06/how-ha…
Mahalo Suevon!
Mahalo to @pacificbiznews for the feature! "The program also inked a partnership with @OutriggerResort to make the Waikiki Malia the program’s official hotel and to give members a central gathering place, which the first cohort didn’t have.” bizjournals.com/pacific/news/2…
From @StarAdvertiser article, “Working at a distance.” “Hawaii benefits not only by the nonprofit service & the employees’ spending locally but also by promoting Hawaii as a workplace environment and that enhances the state’s visitor-destination image.” bit.ly/3gOdD3V

It’s a small start, but it’s evidence of something I predicted and designed for...it’s happening even in the very first cohort, even with the small scale of the program. Network science works!

@MoversandShakas Sorry I signed up and missed it. The weather here was just too awesome (for a bike ride). I'll check out the recording.
Looking for individuals who want to build a better Hawaii. Must be willing to relocate for at least 30 days to a year. The 2nd round of applications for this amazing organization will be opening up this week. If you're interested in joining, moversandshakas.org/apply
REMINDER: Cohort 2 Info Session today, live on our Facebook page at 2pm HST (5pm PST and 8pm EST). Tune in to learn about applying and experiences from Cohort 1 Fellows. facebook.com/moversandshakas
@GovDavidIge @MayorKirkHNL Make Movers & Shakas work! This might help diversify the economy. Hope it is successful. Program supports our Hawaiian culture and protects the ʻĀina. Ho’omaikaʻi. 🤙🏽👍🏽
From @MoversandShakas today. Further feedback? Contact them! #workfromhawaii #moversandshakas
Instead of locales lobbying companies to "bring jobs" via massive skyscrapers and tax breaks, they'll go direct to people who will bring their own jobs. Less transience + more substantial investment in things that matter (green spaces, medical care, broadband infrastructure).
Hawaii's Movers and Shakas program is BRILLIANT 🏖️🤙 Remote at scale is fundamentally reshaping how municipalities attract people. It's no longer about building skyscrapers; it's about competing for the most livable locale. @MoversandShakas @gohawaii moversandshakas.org
@darrenmurph @MoversandShakas @gohawaii Aloha Darren! I’m one of the program designers...you read my mind. Over the years it’s been clear Hawaii can’t compete for companies, but I think we can compete for people and positions. @olearycrew can attest remote has been on my mind a while.

“We are asking those that will be chosen to really give back to the local community,” FCH Enterprises CEO Jason Higa says about the @MoversandShakas program. “At the end of the day … it’s about the ability to learn about our culture—our people in a very unique way.”
@RichMatsui @hawaii We'd be happy to host candidates for the @MoversandShakas program on our Slack instance, where we discuss the local #techindustry and can help newcomers connect with the community! #workfromhawaii #moversandshakas
