BOISE, Idaho – Leadership Boise, a Boise Metro Chamber program sponsored by Global Bound, LLC, has announced the Leadership Boise (LB) class of 2025-2027. Established in 1975, LB has graduated over 2,200 Treasure Valley professionals, making it one of the largest and longest-running Chamber-sponsored leadership programs in the country.
​
Participants engage in monthly, daylong sessions to enhance their understanding of the community, its challenges, and opportunities. Monthly topics such as Healthcare and Innovation & Technology encourage fresh perspectives on leadership, innovation, collaboration, and empower participants with the tools to broaden their impact in leadership roles. Each year, Leadership Boise alumni interview numerous candidates from which a select group is chosen as the new class.

“In the second year of the program, participants are divided into Planning Teams to plan and execute the sessions they attended in their first year of LB,” said Karyn Stuart, Chamber Director of Leadership Programs. “This past weekend, Opening Retreat was held at YMCA Camp in Horsethief Reservoir; the “Opening Retreat Planning Team” did a fantastic job of combining team-building exercises with leadership development content from passionate speakers such as David Duro, YMCA, and Mike Krause of Global Bound, LLC. Stuart added.”

The 2025- 2026 LB leadership team includes: LB President, Gabe Brenner (City of Boise) LB VP, Wes Stanfill (Robertson’s LLC) and LB Academy VP, Erika Berryman (St. Luke’s). This team developed the overarching LB Theme for 2025-2026 (PERSONAL GROWTH TO COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP) which is woven into all civic/leadership sessions, and they work closely with Chamber Foundation Leadership staff to deliver a stellar program experience for all LB and LB Academy participants.

Congratulations to the newest class of Leadership Boise participants and to the companies that support the Chamber and their employees’ growth!
