OEI

The Omaha Executive Institute (OEI) is a program offered by the Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce exclusively for senior level executives and their spouses who are new to their positions and/or new to the community. OEI is offered once a year, beginning in the fall, with seven sessions. Enrollment is limited to 35 individuals. The program explores the issues, challenges and opportunities of Greater Omaha. Topics are selected to help participants understand the environment in which they are now doing business.

Seminars are held in the evening from 5-9 p.m. Each seminar begins with a reception and concludes with dinner, giving participants the opportunity to interact with speakers and other participants. Tuition for the program is $3,600 per couple, $1,800 per person.

Program Goals:

• Broaden the participants' working knowledge of the community in a short period of time by providing an overview of the Omaha economic, political, and civic structure, its resources and leadership.
• Acquaint participants with the formal and informal decision-making channels in Omaha.
• Provide opportunities to visit unique locations.
• Introduce members to contemporaries in diverse organizations.
• Assist participants in connecting with community activities consistent with their interests, experiences, and availability.

Opportunities to meet with past Omaha Executive Institute participants are offered periodically through social and educational programs.
