(November 19, 2013) Jackson, TN – Judy Renshaw, Senior Vice President, Business & Community Services with the Jackson Chamber, has announced that she will transition to a part time capacity starting on January 1, 2014. Renshaw will continue to oversee the chamber’s leadership development program, Leadership Jackson, as well as the Leadership Jackson Alumni Association.
“The chamber has provided many opportunities to grow during my 38+ years,” Renshaw said. “Working in every position, except industrial development, I have had the opportunity to see our community from multiple lenses. Being involved in an organization that has the respect of the community and is a driver for positive change has been fascinating to watch and be engaged.”
Renshaw graduated from the U.S. Chamber Institute of Organizational Management; American Chamber of Commerce Executives’ Leadership Development Program at Center for Creative Leadership; Dale Carnegie Course; Association of Leadership Professionals; and WestStar.
“Judy is one of the most admired Chamber of Commerce leaders in Tennessee and the United States,” said Kyle Spurgeon, President/CEO, Jackson Chamber. “Her tenure at the Jackson Chamber has been marked by success after success, particularly in the area of leadership development and small business.”
Soon after beginning her career at the chamber, Renshaw helped oversee the development of the chamber’s leadership programs, Leadership Jackson, and the youth leadership program, Leadership University.
“Leadership Jackson and Leadership University have done more than any other program to better prepare individuals for various leadership positions in our community,” Spurgeon said. “The chamber’s small business programs have grown and evolved under Judy’s direction and continue to provide opportunities for the many small business members served by the Chamber. She will continue to lead and play a vital role with our leadership programs.”
A come and go reception for Renshaw will be held on Wednesday, December 18 at the Jackson Chamber from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. The reception will be open to the public.
