Why I teach at IOM: “With the IOM program, the U.S. Chamber has created a powerful balance of meaningful learning with career-lasting community. Each year I come back to teach, I find class after class that is enthusiastic about the learning they get to experience – they are literally thirsty to learn and are willing to explore an array of experiential learning formats in their journey. With that said, what I get the most joy out of as an instructor is meeting these classes of students, each from different backgrounds, locations, size of organization – even associations and chambers – and finding that each has created their own micro-communities that will serve as their professional kitchen cabinet for years to come. Knowing that the time I spend is just one piece of the larger journey of building the organizational leadership of tomorrow that our associations and chambers need – how could you not want to play a role in that cause!”
