๏ปฟ๏ปฟAs we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., progress begins with awareness. In a recent Leadership Greater Washington class, I heard a phrase that stayed with me: what you canโt see, you canโt wrestle with.
๏ปฟ๏ปฟIn todayโs economy, misalignment often exists beneath the surface. Capital may be available but not reaching the right businesses. Talent may be present but disconnected from opportunity. These gaps are systemic, like groundwater shaping outcomes.
๏ปฟ๏ปฟDr. King challenged us to confront systems, not symptoms. The Chamber plays a role in surfacing whatโs unseenโaligning capital, workforce, and opportunity through data, relationships, and advocacy.
๏ปฟ๏ปฟProgress starts when we see clearly and act together.
