SHAREHOLDER DEVELOPMENT - OUR MISSION

At Sealaska, we look at our Shareholder Benefit programs with a strategic and holistic approach. Our goal is to create opportunities, programs and partnerships for the benefit of Sealaska shareholders and descendants at each step of their life path and in diverse fields. These opportunities extend to our shareholders across the United States and beyond, all while facilitating authentic conversations around Alaska Native identity and respecting diversity, which supports an inclusive and safe atmosphere for learning and growth.

Based on the Community Leadership Roadmap and priorities identified in the Shareholder Survey, we have created an approach to reach our shareholders at every part of their life cycle.

We start with youth, focusing on early education; move to post-secondary education; then career development; supporting emerging leaders who then serve as mentors for the next generation.


Our approach:
  • Our decisions are proactive and made to create stability for future generations.
  • Success looks different for everyone. Therefore, there is no one path to success.
  • As an Alaska Native Corporation with opportunities in business and STEM fields, we lean into our expertise and industry knowledge to create opportunities and support in those fields.
  • We strengthen partnerships to complement and expand our work, especially relying on Southeast Alaska organizations with a track record of building long-term, reliable support systems in rural communities.
  • In all we do, we facilitate authentic conversations around Alaska Native identity and respect diversity, which supports an inclusive and safe atmosphere for learning and growth.
