The Greater Raleigh Chamber’s Leadership Raleigh program continues to play an important role in developing informed, engaged leaders who understand and care deeply about our community.
We’d like to extend a special congratulations to York Property Manager, Abby Paul, on graduating in class #51!
As a proud LR Class #1 alum, Smedes York remains a dedicated supporter of the program and its mission to connect emerging leaders to the issues and opportunities shaping Raleigh. Last week, he spoke to Leadership Raleigh Class #51 and shared a few reflections:
· In a city like Raleigh, rich with opportunity and diversity, find what moves you and get involved in a way that makes a difference.
· Treat everyone with respect – every interaction matters, regardless of title or role.
· Stay humble. Even if you’re an expert, recognize that others bring valuable perspectives and insights.
· Know your strengths and focus on where you add the most value – stay in your lane.
· Take care of the short term; long-term success depends on how well you manage what’s in front of you today.
