Developing People, Not Just Employees: A New Path for Local Leaders
Chamber Amplified
This week on Chamber Amplified from the Findlay-Hancock County Chamber of Commerce we’re digging into a different kind of leadership conversation - the practical skills that actually help people grow inside an organization. Communication that lands. Conflict that gets resolved instead of ignored. Understanding yourself well enough to lead others. And even learning how to be wrong productively.
To help us unpack all of that, we’re joined by Chris Caldwell of the Black Heritage Library & Multicultural Center. Chris has spent two decades teaching, coaching, and facilitating professional development, and now he’s launching a brand-new year-long leadership and communication series in Findlay.
We explore:
- Why one-off workshops rarely create real change
- How monthly touchpoints build stronger, more consistent leaders
- The role identity and self-awareness play in leadership
- Why “being wrong” is a skill, not a flaw - and how it can strengthen team culture
- How assertiveness can be invitational instead of bossy
- Ways individuals and businesses can participate, from single-session workshops to the intensive Bona Fide Program
If you’re a business owner, manager, or just someone who wants to develop stronger leaders inside your team, this episode is packed with practical insight (and yes, a little humor along the way).
