The award-winning Chandler Chamber Community Foundation brings together business leaders to learn about various industries in the city and different resources available. As a result of the program, many of these business professionals serve on various nonprofit boards and commissions. To date, the Chamber has a roster of more than 1,200 graduates.
During the first year of the program, students meet once a month for unique on-site tours, hands-on training presentations and engaging discussions with regard to education, government, public safety, social services, health, life and leisure, media, business and industry, and infrastructure and environment. Regional and state leaders speak to the class about critical issues facing Arizona; plus, the class collaborates to plan, fundraise and carry out on a legacy project aimed at making a positive lasting impact for community members.
Second-year class members apply their leadership skills to curate and structure the program for the incoming leadership class. Throughout the program, class members develop long-lasting professional networks with peers and program alumni.
By connecting local business professionals in various industries across Chandler and Arizona, class members are equipped with the necessary tools to lead effectively and adapt to the needs of the community. This Leadership Institute provides a comprehensive look at the city and empowers participants to stay rooted in their community.
