With our world and communities changing very rapidly over the past couple weeks, the efforts of Chamber professionals all over our country and throughout the world have been noticed and greatly appreciated. Our Chambers of Commerce are proving their value in our communities as they are working hard to relay the latest information while supporting their local business community during these trying times as the majority of the economy has come to a screeching halt. It is in times like these that people and your community will look for leadership.
I felt it appropriate to replay a previous episode (episode 12) when I had Diane Probst from the Rockport-Fulton Chamber as my guest to discuss How a Chamber Fits in After a Disaster. In that episode, Diane shared her experience with a hurricane but what she has to share is very applicable to many disasters that we face or could face in the future. This episode is a great reminder that will spark some thoughts of how you can lead during these trying times and how your Chamber can solidify it’s footing as the go-to resource for information in your community.
