The Flagstone State Community College Junior Chamber of Commerce has been going for 3 years. It just held its 4th Annual General Meeting to elect its new Executive Committee of Trent Bonner, Jessica Tracey, Natalie Holmes and Nick Eagles. The new committee is prepared for their roles ahead, with Trent, Jess and Natalie being re-elected from last years Executive Committee.

Succession Planning is something Bob Wiley (Logan Country Chamber representative), Jenny Krause (Teacher, Flagstone State Community College) and I as mentors have being working towards for the last 3 years since inception. This is just one of the many milestones  planned and met, allowing the Jnr Chamber to grow and mature over this time.

The Junior Chamber has run a Careers Expo at the school for the last 3 years. With planning for the Expo starting 10 months prior, this means as soon as it is over, planning for next years begins shortly after.

As a mentor and seeing the current Executive Committee achieve what they have, I can say I am truly proud of them and what they have achieved. They are definitely growing and becoming professional in their roles and responsibilities.
