Because That Is What We Do: A Pathway To Tribal Economic Sovereignty

Gary Green

Written by the star of the television series Casino Rescue , this book is a guide to strategic planning for Tribe-to-Tribe economic development partnerships. It is a blueprint -by example- of one Tribe’s model for creating sustainable economic development with casinos as the starting engineWhile it tells the success-story of the Willapa Bay Enterprises (WBE) Corporation of the Shoalwater Bay Indian Tribe, it actually is a handbook for intertribal processes to transform strained low-income Tribal enterprises into modern successful economic engines.The backstory is a common one; a Tribal history wrought with struggle, an under-performing casino, misfired businesses, but with Tribal leaders who are eager to take care of their people and build prosperity.In a novel-perfect plot twist, it all turns around when the right team comes together and creates not only incredible success but a template for sharing the success with other Tribes. Once the story plays out, the stage is set for a cookie-cutter roadmap to success; a formula that almost any Tribe can duplicate by partnering with WBE.This book outlines how that partnership works.Author Gary Green is a former Donald Trump casino vice president, host and star of the television series Casino Rescue and the author of the landmark book Osceola’s Revenge; The Phenomena of Indian Casino .
