Signature Events
Strategic Leadership Visit
The purpose of the Douglas County Chamber’s Strategic Leadership Visit is to take a select group of both Douglas and the region’s leaders in government, business and education to other metro counties and regions to explore innovative ideas and programs which have helped to build partnerships to impact positive community change. Previous visits to Greenville, Austin, Nashville, Huntsville, and Durham have exposed participants to a wide range of ideas and practices for economic and community development. Equally important, the visits have created new networks among business and civic leaders in Douglas and metro Atlanta – connections vital for implementing lessons learned upon return to Georgia.
Our multi-day Strategic Leadership Visits bring together leaders from government, business, and education to explore high-performing metro regions across the country. Past trips to Greenville, Austin, Nashville, Huntsville, and Durham have showcased successful economic development strategies and built valuable networks among Douglas and metro Atlanta leaders.
