Ready to make a bigger impact?
If you are ready to become more connected, more involved and more invested in the future of our local business community, board service may be your next step.
There is a difference between being a member of a Chamber and becoming one of the people helping move that Chamber forward.
The Colony Chamber of Commerce is currently accepting interest from members who may want to be considered for service on our Board of Directors.
We are looking for people who care about their own business, but who also understand something bigger: a stronger business community creates more opportunity for all of us.
Why Does a Chamber Board Exist?
The Board of Directors helps provide governance, strategic direction and leadership for the Chamber. Board members bring the perspective of the business community into the room and help keep the organization focused on its mission and future.
Great Board Members Do More Than Attend Meetings
We are interested in members who want to participate, contribute and help create momentum. You do not have to know everything about Chamber governance on day one. What matters is what you are willing to bring to the table.
You understand that meaningful relationships are built through consistency.
You care about creating a healthy environment for businesses throughout our community.
You are willing to ask questions, offer perspective and help turn good ideas into action.
You enjoy connecting people and helping others find opportunities to succeed.
You can listen to different perspectives and work toward what is best for the organization.
You want to play an active role in the continued success of the community where we live, work and do business.
And Yes, Getting More Involved Can Elevate Your Business
Board service is about serving the Chamber and its members first. But something powerful happens when you consistently contribute to your business community: people get to know you.
Chamber Membership Becomes More Powerful When You Get Involved
You can join a Chamber, put your business in the directory and attend an occasional event. There is value in that.
But the members who often build the strongest relationships are the ones who participate consistently. They attend. They volunteer. They make introductions. They support other members. They sponsor. They serve on committees. They step into leadership.
Board service is one of the highest levels of that engagement.
What Do You Bring to the Table?
A strong Chamber board benefits from different industries, experiences, ideas, networks and perspectives.
You may bring experience in leadership, finance, marketing, operations, entrepreneurship, community service, education, nonprofit leadership, sales, hospitality, technology or something entirely different. What matters most is a willingness to participate, collaborate and use your experience to help move the Chamber forward.
