"Being new to the area, we were told that we should become involved in the Chamber of Commerce. We actually took this advice and we are pleased that we did. The programs offered by the Chamber have been helpful and enlightening to us.

       Seminars: For the individuals in our business family that are new to business, the seminars offered by the Chamber were enlightening and affirming. To borrow a radio phrase; it gave shy people the will to do what must be done.

      Chamber Leads Group I: Much to our amazement, there were no embroiderers in this leads group. What a way to move to the front of the line. This is an excellent opportunity to become much more closely aligned with other businesses. We have received leads and given leads at the meeting and in our store.

We are very pleased to be a part of the Greensboro Chamber of Commerce. We also want to thank you for your personal support and motivation to our team. Keep up the good work for the business community of this area."

“During the first week of my membership I attended three or four Chamber events and each one brought me new customers! We continuously have customers calling and stopping by our printing business that I have met through the Greensboro Chamber! I try not to miss any events because I know they mean more sales and more knowledge about the growth of Greensboro!"

“I can honestly say that my involvement in Leadership Greensboro has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my professional life.  The experience exceeded my expectations and provided me the fuel and the vehicle to launch my greater participation in the community.  I have recommended the program to several of my colleagues, and our organization now considers it a "must do" for anyone who strives to be an active member of our community."

“I was fortunate to be a member of the first graduating class of Other Voices in 1994, and I loved watching the program grow and become even more effective over the past decade. I have been involved with both the steering committee and the program committee since my graduation, and continue to learn new things about myself through my friends who bring their different life experiences to the Other Voices circle.  The importance of the honest dialogue simply cannot be overemphasized! Other voices is not just a "diversity program".  It is the beginning of a journey that will last a lifetime. I am so thankful that the Greensboro Chamber of Commerce offers this valuable leadership training program to our community."

"The Leadership Greensboro Seniors program has given me a new perspective of the city of Greensboro. Having lived here for 35 years, I originally thought that I didn't need this opportunity. I found out differently when I started seeing new facilities and hearing first-hand from the leaders who are making things happen. The Chamber of Commerce is to be commended for offering "seniors" a chance to meet those who are changing the face of the city and area. I like being on the "cutting edge" of Greensboro."

"I joined the Chamber and Leads Group II very soon after I started in the promotional products business over six years ago. Continued participation in both has been instrumental in developing my business. Today, two of my most important customers are the result of leads I received from Group II."
