Chamber 101- Home
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Jaycees, he made a presentation to his local Chamber of Commerce Board about a JC project. After the board meeting the Chamber manager said to him, “You would be good in Chamber work.” He helped Gordon apply for a Chamber manager’s job in another community, close by. After getting the position as Chamber Director, he said, “What next?” He knew nothing about Chamber work. But lucky for him he shared board members with adjacent Chambers. They recommended that he go to Institute for Organizational Management. In institute they talked about job descriptions, policy manuals, procedure manuals, etc.; and his Chamber had none of these. He wanted to see examples and samples. Show him an example and he can sit down and write his own. But all institute taught was theory. About the third year, he was more interested in theory. After completing the US Chamber’s Institute 6-year program in 1977, he always thought there should be some place that Chamber managers could go for examples and samples.
