LEADERSHIP TRACY 2015

“I loved my experience with the Leadership Tracy program! As a resident of Tracy, I wanted to get more involved and find out what was happening in this community. There is so much more to Tracy than I thought! This program gave me a broad overview of the community from City Hall, to education, to private enterprise! Learning about Tracy was fun and educational! I made some wonderful friends also that I network with in the future. I am sad that it’s ending! Thank you for the wonderful experience!”

“The Leadership Tracy 2015 experience was an incredible learning and leadership

• experience. While I have enjoyed many leadership

programs through-out my career, I can honestly say this program inspired me and is the best one I have ever participated in. Being on site at numerous Tracy business locations, and using the Leadership Tracy 2015 experience to profile and discuss leadership approaches, was both engaging and very relevant to current business issues. I now feel a renewed sense of pride for the city of Tracy and how efficiently it’s being run. “

“The Leadership Tracy program completely exceeded my

• expectations. First, we are truly working and living in a

strong, special, positive community. Each class session the level of knowledge as well as passion each employee showed for their company or line or work was contagious. While Tracy has thousands who live and work here, Tracy has kept the “small town feel,” which is something that Leadership Tracy showed me. People take great pride in the community and truly want the best for their neighbors. Additionally, it was great to see a wide range of businesses and learn how they operate day after day. It is reassuring to know that I am a part of a community that honors their local values while still continuing to plan and prepare for the future.”

“This experience provided six fascinating peeks backstage to the city I’ve lived and worked in for

• ver twenty years and thought I understood. Each

session opened my eyes to previously unconsidered challenges facing Tracy in the both the public and private sectors, and gave me a deeper appreciation for the dedicated people that have devoted themselves so completely to create the quality of life we enjoy here. The participants, varied in their experience and expertise, brought a enjoyable dynamic to each session’s program presented by the chamber.”

“My experience with Leadership Tracy was both insightful and rewarding. The personal and professional return on investment was far greater than the time and money invested to be part of this experience. The Chamber recognized and respected City Leaders in Government, Education, Public Safety, local businesses, etc. and provided us a behind the scenes in depth look at the challenges and champions responsible for making Tracy the desired place for many to call home. The exposure and intimate conversations were insightful in understanding how our City Leaders think and process the challenges facing our City. Through Leadership Tracy, I have established new business relationships to help

• ur business grow and a renewed interest and commitment to

being an active participant in the exciting future of Tracy, the place we so proudly call “home”

“Leadership Tracy definitely exceeded my expectations. Not

• nly did the program help foster new professional friendships

and personal growth, it has surfaced opportunities to partner with Tracy organizations. The program has connected my organization -- the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory -- with the City of Tracy, the Grand Theater and the Tracy Unified School District, enabling us to expand our STEM (Science Technology, Engineering and Math) education program into Tracy. We are now scheduled to bring our Science on Saturday lecture series to The Grand in April 2016, and in March we will be hosting a pair of West High School Space Engineering classes on a set of daylong tours and round-tables with our scientists and engineers. “
