Leadership Spencer

We are in the process of redeveloping the Leadership Spencer Program and therefore, the 2022 session has been postponed. For more information contact the Spencer Chamber at (712) 262-5680 or email us at director@spenceriowachamber.org.

In the past, during the spring, residents new to the community and those interested in learning more about the area embark on a 10-week course to give them a better understanding of the workings of the City of Spencer. In addition, members of the class are challenged to a group or individual class project with a goal of bettering the community.

Subjects in the past have included: Manufacturing/Industry (Economic Development), Law Enforcement-Public Safety, Healthcare, Culture, Tourism & Transportation, City and County Government, Education and more.

"The new Chamber magazine, THRIVE, has been a great way for us to highlight our business and the region in one publication. We have used it at career fairs especially, and it has been wonderful."

"Joining a chamber of commerce is not only a great way to be part of the community, but with the Spencer Chamber of Commerce, you never know who you’ll meet and where those relationships will lead. I am forever grateful for their assistance."

"Serving on the Young Professionals board has not only been valuable, but also very exciting and entertaining. Acting as a member of the Chamber has helped me to gain confidence, respect, reputability, and most importantly community involvement and support!"
