GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Greater Green Bay Chamber, in partnership with Northeast Wisconsin Technical College (NWTC) Corporate Training & Economic Development, has launched “Leading Greater” — new leadership development program designed for Chamber Young Professional members.
“Leading Greater” equips professionals at any stage of their career with practical, workplace-ready skills they can apply from day one. Participants build a deeper understanding of their leadership style while strengthening communication and teamwork—gaining the confidence to lead in today’s workplace. Whether stepping into a first leadership role or expanding existing strengths, learners gain the tools and perspective to grow — professionally and personally.
“This is an opportunity for employers to invest in their people and develop leaders from within,” said Ashlee Vysocil, Young Professionals Manager at the Greater Green Bay Chamber. “And for individuals, it’s a chance to build practical skills and prepare for greater possibilities — wherever their career takes them.”
Leading Greater is structured as a two-course learning experience, with the flexibility for learners to enroll in one or both courses, which include:
· Leading Greater: DiSC® — an in-person experience at NWTC that combines a DiSC® assessment with facilitated learning focused on communication styles and team dynamics.
· Leading Greater: I.M.P.A.C.T. — a flexible, self-paced course featuring virtual discussions and practical leadership development that participants can apply directly in their current roles. Upon completion, learners will earn an NWTC digital badge, with an option to bridge into college credit.
“NWTC is proud to partner with the Greater Green Bay Chamber to strengthen leadership development opportunities for young professionals across our region,” said Jim Draeger, dean of NWTC Corporate Training & Economic Development. “Leading Greater reflects a shared investment in developing the region’s future leaders while supporting talent retention and business growth.”
Leading Greater provides organizations with a meaningful way to invest in their young professionals while giving participants access to the development opportunities they seek—right here in Northeast Wisconsin. As leadership demands continue to evolve, this collaborative program positions the region for long-term success by strengthening talent, supporting employers, and building a pipeline of confident, capable leaders.
