Chamber publishes 2014 Community Leadership Visit Report

Three days, 10 panel discussions, 43 guest speakers, and 168 tweets later, 61 of Springfield’s business and community leaders learned the ins-and-outs of what makes Omaha a city of big ideas, big dollars and “no coasting.”

On the Chamber’s 21st Community Leadership Visit last October, the Springfield delegation heard from a community who is ready to be seen as “work here, live here, play here” country; a community that wants to be known for world class museums and cultural facilities rather than empty prairies; a community that wants the reputation of their homegrown entrepreneurs to outweigh the reputation of their steaks. Omaha is a community who has worked to identify who they are – why they are strong, and why you don’t want to miss being a part of it.
