Redlinger elected chair of state association of chamber directors

The Iowa Association of Chambers of Commerce (IACC) announced that Michelle Redlinger, executive director at the Washington Chamber of Commerce, has been elected as chair of the 2022 IACC Board of Directors.

“Michelle is a great asset and addition to our 2022 board of directors,” said Lane Till, IACC executive director. “We are confident her 10 years of experience in the chamber industry will help strengthen our organization.”

The IACC board of directors is comprised of 11 individuals, representing chambers of commerce across all regions of Iowa, with the purpose of providing guidance in the areas of organizational sustainability, growth, public awareness and member programming.

“As the director of a small to mid-sized chamber, I am particularly excited to represent other chambers of similar size,” Redlinger said. “The majority of our members in the Washington Chamber are also small to medium sized businesses who are locally owned. They wear multiple hats and are very similar to a lot of chambers across the state.

“Being involved in a smaller organization gives me an opportunity to experience all facets of the organization. I am confident that this experience will lend me to being relatable as well as resourceful.”
