CAREER COACH AND CAREER FACILITATOR ATTENDS MONTHLY VANCOUVER CHAMBER FORUM

Each month the Chamber of Commerce in my hometown of Vancouver, Washington holds a forum about important issues that concern our community. High-level executives give us an overview. Then the forum is open for questions from the community.

This month there was presentation on the architectural design for an area that will be transformed from a former airfield to an area that will become a huge complex that includes retail stores, homes and restaurants.

This forum provided an outstanding opportunity to for us to really learn first-hand about what is happening in our community, including traffic impact and new jobs.

For $10 (included breakfast provided by Nautilus at their World Headquarters) I was able to become a very informed citizen on the issue--important information for an Executive Coach to have in her tool
chest.
