FRESNO BUSINESS COUNCIL

PROVIDING A PRODUCTIVE LIAISON BETWEEN BUSINESS/ PROFESSIONAL LEADERSHIP OF THE AREA AND ALL LEVELS OF LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. FRESNO BUSINESS COUNCIL HAS BEEN A CATALYST FOR TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE, A CONVENER OF FORMERLY DISCONNECTED ORGANIZATIONS, AND A STEWARD LEADER WILLING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR HELPING TO SOLVE CRITICAL AND SYSTEMIC PROBLEMS. THE ORGANIZATION IS STILL LARGELY VIRTUAL, WITH MEMBERS PICKING UP MANY OF THE OPERATIONAL FUNCTIONS. HOWEVER, WITH THE LAUNCH OF THE FRESNO STEWARDSHIP INITIATIVE, IT IS ACCELERATING COMMUNITY TRANSFORMATION AND MEASURING OUTCOMES. THE FUTURE WILL BE WRITTEN BASED UPON THE HARD WORK OF TODAY.
