Analysis

Small Business Perspective

The Quality of Life section shows no consideration for small businesses under 20 employees. There is no discussion of how quality of life factors might benefit or support small business owners or employees. While this could potentially benefit small businesses in the tourism and hospitality sectors, there is no specific mention or focus on how these small businesses contribute to or could be supported in enhancing the state's quality of life. An inclusive strategy would have highlighted the role of small, local businesses in creating vibrant communities, preserving local culture, or providing unique services that contribute to the state's overall quality of life.

Big Business Perspective

This section likely aims to appeal to large corporations by highlighting factors that can help them attract and retain skilled employees. The emphasis on quality of life is particularly relevant for big businesses looking to relocate or expand operations in Idaho.
