Ep. 55: Catalytic Leadership: Chambers, Change, and the Future of Work
Episode 55
Monday, 16 February, 2026
What does it take to lead in a moment of massive change for communities and businesses alike? Chambers of commerce sit at that intersection. In this episode of The Great Retention, Kamber is joined by Sheree Anne Kelly, President and CEO of the Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives, to talk about how today’s leaders can navigate the challenges reshaping local economies. Sheree Anne highlights the biggest hurdles facing chambers and their members—from talent and skills gaps to re-skilled hiring and the K–12 pipeline. She shares why entrepreneurial, purpose-driven leaders are finding success, especially when they leverage flexibility and benefits as competitive tools. She also discusses generational shifts in leadership, with younger professionals stepping into chamber roles under the watchful eye of stakeholders, making structure and policies more important than ever. And when it comes to change management, Sheree Anne advises leaders to over-communicate, meet people where they are, and address fears directly. What comes next? She envisions a future defined by catalytic leadership and co-creation—where chambers play a critical role in shaping the regions they serve. This episode delivers fresh perspective on leadership, talent, and the future of communities—make sure to listen.
