Session 1: Executive Presence Workshop: You Belong in the Room

Saturday Oct. 19 - 9:15 AM - 10:45 AM (90 min)

Executive Presence is the ability to act decisively and with dignity while embodying the
most essential elements of leadership. Those with an executive presence work well
under pressure, communicate clearly, and have a confident, capable persona. Some
people think or feel like they do not belong in a room of executives. You do belong! You
will learn the attributes of executive presence and how to develop a growth mindset. We
will also walk through an executive presence case study to see what executive
presence looks like in real life. You will be given next steps and suggestions to continue
your growth as a leader.

Session 5 - Getting the Most Out of Your Foundation

Sunday Oct. 20 - 10:15 AM - 11:30 AM (75 min)

Getting the Most Out of Your Foundation (A Working Guide)
Does your Chamber have a “Foundation”? Is your Chamber considering adding a
“Foundation”? What exactly do you want to accomplish through your “Foundation”? Like
many issues in the tax world, you have to know what to ask for if you want the IRS to
recognize and support your business plan. The term “foundation” is a non-tax
description of a type of tax exempt organization which can take a number of different
forms, each of which is subject to different rules as to the deductibility of contributions,
the oversight required if a grant is received and the types of operations which can be
undertaken There are also a number of IRS rules for how a Chamber, which is not a
charitable entity, should interact with an affiliated charity, especially if money is
expected to move from the charity to the Chamber. This session will provide an
overview of the federal tax and state law rules and regulations which must be
considered when deciding whether to form an affiliated tax-exempt charity and, if you
do, which structure will be best for your Chamber.
