Collaboration Decoded: How DFW Chambers Amplify the Business Voice

In this interview, Ronnie Spellman and Ken Malcolmson, President and CEO of the North Dallas Chamber of Commerce, discuss the chamber's strategy for driving regional prosperity and effective leadership. Malcolmson details how the chamber, which prefers to call its members "stakeholders," focuses on the entire Dallas region, working to address economic imbalances like the funding disparity between North and South Dallas. He highlights major, high-engagement events, such as the annual bus tour of the southern sector and the Transportation Crossroads conference. A central theme is collaboration among regional chambers and business organizations to amplify advocacy efforts on critical issues like infrastructure and quality of life. Malcolmson also shares leadership wisdom, emphasizing the power of showing up, building relationships, and the distinction between a mentor and a sponsor. He concludes by celebrating the richness of life derived from community engagement, not just financial wealth.For a summary and to connect with the guest, please visit https://www.linkedin.com/company/business-decoded-podcastProduced by www.andycostafilms.com
