In this episode of Chamber On!, host Matt Appenzeller, President and CEO of the Southern Ohio Chamber Alliance (SOCA), sits down with Wendy Rodgers, President & CEO of the Beavercreek Chamber of Commerce.
We find out how Wendy used a “listening tour” to reset the chamber’s direction coming out of the pandemic, the creative ways the Beavercreek chamber is helping small businesses tell their stories (including a member-ready multimedia studio!), and the big vision behind a brand-new Business Success & Event Center designed to bring people together and strengthen the entire community. Wendy’s leadership is a shining example of what it means for today’s chambers to be a lighthouse for the community, rather than a lamppost. Tune in now!
