The Chattanooga Chamber of Commerce announces the Leadership Chattanooga class of 2020-21.
Leadership Chattanooga class members connect with our community while learning about what it means to lead. Through monthly sessions, education-related projects, police ride-alongs and more – participants graduate with a fresh understanding of our community’s strengths and challenges, and how we can all be part of solutions.
The program year kicks off in August with an orientation and two day retreat, with monthly sessions beginning in September and culminating with a graduation in May 2021. Leadership Chattanooga activities this year will be virtual for the foreseeable future.
“While the world may look a bit different for all of us, the need for diverse, engaged leaders in the Chattanooga community is greater than ever before,” says Miles Huff, Chamber Senior Director of Talent Initiatives. “We are elated to continue our Leadership Chattanooga program virtually with this group of dynamic individuals who will work together over the next 10 months to better themselves professionally, and better Chattanooga. This year will be unique, there is no doubt, but if there is a group that can tackle these challenges successfully – this is it.”
