"It is extremely important for the Skokie Chamber members to see Oakton as their resource for training and retraining of their workforce. We also recognize the Chamber members are the thought leaders in the community and as such can recommend Oakton’s resources to friends and family if they know more about us. We also need the Chamber’s leadership in helping us to understand the educational needs of the community and to work to fill them."

As a former Skokie Chamber of Commerce Executive Director, and current active member, I am personally aware of all aspects of overseeing a non-profit business organization, many of which can be quite challenging. Howard faces his position with great competence. He is a strong and dedicated leader who strives to create a Chamber that caters to the needs of a large and diverse membership. He is a strong advocate of the business community, and is well known both professionally and personally in Skokie and at-large!

Howard Meyer is the ultimate professional. He has not only continuously encourages me, but has also made important connections for me which has helped my company grow and succeed! He goes out of his way to help area businesses. His first priority is to grow the Chamber by retaining old members, not just the new ones. Join this Chamber. It is a great move that will help your business to grow!!

Join this Chamber and become connected to the best networking guru in Howard Meyer! He is dedicated to helping all who cross his path within the community. His guidance is priceless and more so is that Howard makes you feel important. Howard empowers his staff and does not direct his associates with what action to take. He assists members in thinking so one may go in the direction that is best for them. Under Howard's tutelage, the Skokie Chamber of Commerce has experienced tremendous growth in both membership numbers and influence.

Howard Meyer is an experienced professional who has built the Skokie Chamber of Commerce into one of the most well-known and effective business organizations in the Chicagoland area. He is well regarded by his members and held in the highest regard.

As the President and CEO of the Skokie Chamber of Commerce, Howard Meyer exemplifies the type of leadership and vision needed to give local businesses an opportunity to excel. Business owners and professionals in Skokie are lucky to have such a strong advocate. We have worked very hard at bringing a variety of pro-business centric legislation to Illinois businesses and Howard has been a great partner in this effort!

Howard Meyer and his staff go above and beyond the call of duty in their capacity as business representatives for the community.  The programs continue to bring in new members and they always refer business to other Chamber members.

High praise for Howard Meyer's leadership of a highly diverse membership. He is tireless- and effective- in creating events that benefit us collectively and individually!

As a new member to the Chamber, I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience. It has only been a short time but I am so glad to be a part of this wonderful community!
