Leadership Nampa

05/20/2026

Applications are now open for the Leadership Nampa Class of 2027!

In a Valley full of great leadership programs, Leadership Nampa stands out. Here's how:
✨ Consistent Leadership Development — Instead of bringing in different speakers each month, our program features one expert facilitator who guides your leadership growth throughout the entire year.
📸 Professional Headshot Included — Because leadership should look as good as it feels.
💡 Real Connections, Real Access — Go behind the scenes of Nampa’s key institutions, meet the leaders shaping our city, and build a network that lasts well beyond the program.

Leadership Nampa is more than a course—it’s a community. Whether you're a rising professional, business owner, or established leader, this nine-month journey will deepen your skills, sharpen your focus, and connect you to what makes Nampa thrive.

📅 Applications are due by June 19, 2026

Today is Lt. Brad Childers’ Alive Day — a powerful milestone that reflects bravery and resilience. When Lt. Childers shared his journey with our Leadership Nampa class, his story inspired and deeply touched everyone in the room. His courage continues to strengthen our community. 💙

▪️Alive Day n. the anniversary of a close escape from death
Today we celebrate Lt. Brad Childers’ ALIVE DAY!
On this day in 2012, two Canyon County Deputies, Brad Childers and Mike Roth, were shot in the line of duty.
BOTH SURVIVED.
Brad is now a Nampa Police Lieutenant who helps oversee the patrol division and our K-9 Unit.
We love that we get to celebrate Brad’s survival and his service to Nampa. We are grateful he is part of the Nampa PD team, continuing to serve his community!
Although Mike is no longer in law enforcement, we are proud to recognize his service and sacrifice to Canyon County. Thank You, sir. We are proud to recognize you and Brad on this incredible day! We Will Never Forget.

The Leadership Nampa Class of 2023 experienced Legislative/Gowen Field Day this week. In addition to a fantastic leadership development session, the group engaged in candid conversations with Governor Brad Little, Senator Jeff Agenbroad, and our Idaho National Guard servicemen.

We are so grateful to these leaders for supporting the Chamber and this program. We'd also like to thank Kelly, the most incredible Capitol tour guide ever! It was a great day, and we look forward to what's coming next!

As always, thank you to our program sponsors: Price Associates, College of Western Idaho, and Les Schwab Tire Center.
