Here we are in Rochester for a 3-day chamber conference. Chamber Execs from around the state of Minnesota are gathered to address issues of state-wide importance, share best practices, and reconnect with old and new friends.
Some interesting stuff coming down the pike. Your chamber board will soon hear about several key issues. Card check is a major labor issue that is gaining more and more attention around the state. Huge national push is underway from US Chamber to educate and inform our members. Grass roots policy making at its best. The Executive Committee will also hear about some innovative best practices from around the state too. Some talented folks doing some fantastic stuff for their chambers of commerce.
Another matter to tackle will be our chamber's initiative to create a community wide retail committee. Stay tuned for more on this over the next few weeks.
The great part about these conferences is the way they tend to recharge everyone's batteries. That's a good thing.
