2014 Class Sessions D

uring their year in Leadership Coeur d’Alene, class members attended a variety of lectures, demonstrations, tours and activities that allowed them to gain a better understanding of our community. The class met one day per month, with each day focused on a different community theme. They discussed a variety of issues with community leaders, participated in team building exercises, and were introduced to businesses and organizations in Coeur d’Alene that have been key factors in our area’s history, development and daily life. Members from the Leadership Class of 2013 were in charge of planning each session, taking into consideration their personal experiences in the program. This task allows former classmates to put their skills to work and demonstrate their growth in leadership. At the end of each day, the class conducted a “Best of the Best” discussion, where they looked at the pros and cons throughout the day and provided suggestions for the future. The comments from each day were collected and used at the Class Retreat to help plan the 2015 Leadership program. The following provide a summary of each day through Leadership 2014. The Leadership Committee thanks all of the community members who have supported the Leadership program throughout the years and have made this experience possible for hundreds of future leaders.

HEALTHCARE DAY IS SPONSORED BY KOOTENAI HEALTH

he class started the day with blood draws and analysis for voluntary health assessments offered by the staff at Kootenai Health. After breakfast, Kootenai Health CEO John Ness set the momentum with his presentation on the history, vision, and expansion of the medical center and its technologies. Dr. Richard McLandress—a 20-year veteran speaker for Leadership—shared his knowledge of medical ethics and the unique residency program Kootenai Health offers to up-and-coming medical professionals. Mark Fisher, founder of Advanced Benefits, gave an energetic talk on the changes in healthcare law and how new regulations affect us. Next, a panel of key players in the health industry: Dale Peck with Panhandle Health District, Mike Baker with Heritage Health, and Claudia Miewald at Kootenai Behavioral Health. These experts gave brief overviews of their work and granted a questionand-answer session with the class. For a perspective on naturopathy and preventative medicine, homeopathic practitioner Lisa Rough shared important information about alternative healthcare choices in Coeur d’Alene. Over lunch—provided by Kootenai Health—the class received their Health Assessment results, and got practical tips from the Wellness coaches for achieving our health and fitness goals. The group then split up for tours of some of the Kootenai Health facilities, including the state-of-the-art Cancer Center, the ER, heliport, and the Heart Center complete with an ultrasound of our classmate’s heart!

THANK YOU PITA PIT FOR SPONSORING LUNCH

ur Media day was set at the Pita Pit training center in downtown Coeur d’Alene. Nils Rosdahl, longtime journalism professor and columnist for the Cd’A Press, set the scene with some basics about journalism, like how to write a good, eye-catching story. Did you know the most read column of a newspaper is the obituaries? Mike Patrick, managing editor of the Coeur d’Alene Press, described the importance of a local paper within a community and fielded some tough questions about his work. The group split to tour the places that generate the news—the bustling newspaper warehouse and offices, the KXLY-TV newsroom with Jerry Post, and the Rock 94 ½ sound booth with local DJ Joe Paisley. Back at the classroom, North Idaho College communications director Stacy Hudson and Cd’A School District communications director Laura Rumpler illustrated how vital crisis communications proficiency is to a company. Through an exciting, interactive simulation we all got to practice on-the-spot public relations and interviewing. A company that cares about its community is a company that keeps its customers, as we learned from Sal Piazza at Parker Toyota and Stephanie Powers with Pita Pit—both companies with a track record of corporate sponsorships and charitable giving. Ann Johnson, from Coeur d’Alene Senior Living, shared tips on cause marketing and non-profit promotion from her 15 years of marketing experience. Sgt. Bill Tilson brought a fascinating perspective on the role that social media plays in fighting crime and engaging the community with the Coeur d’Alene Police Department. Aaron Krall, Cliq Marketing, described a number of platforms and social media strategies available to help a business attract and sustain growth. Finally, Kevin Sanders, Vice President of Marketing at Pita Pit, ended the day with a spirited and powerful talk on trust and authenticity—what it is, how to build it, and why it is the currency of the 21st century business world.

nvironment day began with an awe-inspiring tour of the Idaho Forest Group Mill in Athol. Through safety goggles we saw the route of a sawed tree from the logging truck to getting stacked and wrapped for shipment. The mill boasts impressive efficiency through its adoption of technology in all aspects of processing. Returning to the mill offices, we learned about forest health and how the timber industry adapts over time and responds to social and economic changes from Eric Besaw and Scott Atkinson. From Steve Petroni representing Hecla Mining, we heard a little of the Silver Valley mining history, saw some incredibly deep mining shafts, and learned about the many demands for silver and other minerals in our industrial lives. Next, we drove ourselves to the Coeur d’Alene Resort, where the focus shifted to sustainability and environmental protection. From Steve Roberge, District Manager at Waste Management, we finally learned why we can’t recycle glass in Coeur d’Alene. Peter Anderson described the many ways the architecture, design, and construction industry is evolving to reflect the demand for “green,” sustainably-built homes and other structures. Avista Utilities, represented by contract manager Steve Silkworth, provides energy to thousands of households in the area. Silkworth discussed the challenges and triumphs of providing renewable energy to North Idaho, and we took away a few tips to be more energyconscious in our own homes. The following panel trio, representing Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, Environmental Protection Agency, and Lake Coeur d’Alene’s Restoration Partnership, shed light on the dark legacy of mining in the region, specifically the heavy metal contamination of soils and waterways from the Bunker Hill Superfund site downstream to the shores of Lake Coeur d’Alene. Fortunately, the state, federal, and tribal agencies have been working together tirelessly for several years to restore and protect the precious land we call home. Next we walked over to the new McEuen Park and learned about the design, development, and features of this new community park from Bill Greenwood of the City of Coeur d’Alene Parks and Recreation. McEuen park is an ADA approved park complete with splash pads, osprey nests, and a special area for the dogs! After touring the park, we sat at the pavilion and heard from Wayne Wakkinen and Jim Fredricks of Idaho Fish and Game. They spoke to us about various populations of species important to our area, such as Elk and Cutthroat trout and what they do in order to support the wildlife in our area. We then drove to the Gathering Garden which is located on the NIC campus. There we spoke with Janet Torline, who told us about this non-profit community garden organized by the Kootenai Environmental Alliance. Finally, we toured the Waste Water Treatment Plant, guided by Sid Frederickson. He walked us through all of the various stages of water treatment, and included a great sense of humor too! 8

opportunities in the Coeur d’Alene area to include performance, visual arts, and outdoor recreation.

LEADERSHIP: As a leader, expand and develop your own opportunities

he Best Class Ever started Arts and Recreation day with breakfast provided on location at the Kroc Center. John Totten set a lively tone for the day with information about the many opportunities there are to play outdoors with a little help from NIC Outdoor Pursuits. Randall Butts with Idaho Parks and Recreation followed up with details about some of the many state parks in our area, focusing especially on Farragut. The North Idaho Centennial Trail, presented by John Bruning, provides a scenic walk/bike path stretching from Higgins Point to Spokane with plans to connect to northern areas; the 501(c)3 foundation that supports the trail hosts exciting events each year, including Ales for the Trail, Coeur d’Fondo, and the Coeur d’Alene Marathon. The class then moved to the Kroc Center theatre—an incredible performing space without a bad seat in the house. We heard from a performing arts panel representing Lake City Playhouse (Hanna Paton), the Arts and Culture Alliance (Roberta Larsen), Opera CdA (Aaron Nicholson), and CdA Summer Theatre (Laura Little). We got an inside look backstage CSTs props, costumes, and sets of its current professional show My Fair Lady. Next we headed downtown to Coeur d’Alene Galleries which has garnered national acclaim for its western, wildlife, and sporting art. Owner and curator Buddy Le works hard to promote and expose artists in this genre, as well as promoting other art forms such as performance, visual- and public art, music, and cultural preservation to make Coeur d’Alene a thriving “arts” destination. A quick walk took us to the public library where we were treated to the history and theme song and dance of the nowiconic Mudgy and Millie characters by author Susan Nipp whose dream was to fuse literature and public art to create an interactive outdoor family adventure in our city. We grabbed bag lunches provided by Pita Pit and boarded the bus to Farragut, where we reunited with Randall Butt for an in-depth history of Farragut State Park and the thousands of Navy soldiers who trained there. We toured the Brig, including the depressing solitary confinement cells, restored 1940s trucks, and an impressive sculpture and memorial garden dedicated to the men and women who called Farragut home during the war years. We finished our stint at Farragut with a friendly disc-golf competition, with Alright Alright Alright Alison coming out the undisputed champion! The final leg of our day took us to Silverwood Theme Park, where we learned how the Norton family started with an old steam engine train and—over two decades—built a sprawling, renowned Northwest attraction that boasts 600,000+ annual visitors, millions of tourist dollars spent in the area, hundreds of jobs, and substantial donations and support to area non-profit organizations. Scarywood stretches tourism into November, and the Night of Stars gives thousands of mentally or physically disabled individuals a free evening of fun at the park. Between impressive roller coasters, Water Park, and the “step back in time” atmosphere, Silverwood truly offers fun for the whole family. We finished the day sampling a few of the attractions this great park has to offer!

conomics Day started at the University of Idaho Harbor House, it was a great location with a beautiful view of the river. The morning line up stared with Troy Tymeson, Acting City Administrator/Treasurer for the city of Coeur d’Alene. What a perfect presentation for the beginning of the day. He was lively, kept us engaged and involved, and had clearly done his research on us! He spoke about Economic Development within the City of Coeur d’Alene, how the city makes money, and what we have currently and in the future to look forward to. Our next speaker was Tony Berns, Executive Director of Lake City Development Corporation. He did a fantastic job explaining what “LCDC” is, how they get their funding, and what projects they have completed as well as what they are working on currently and in the future. Next up was a Real Estate Panel to discuss the state of real estate in Kootenai County. The panel included Pat Eberlin, Commercial Sales and Leasing with Kimele and Hagood; Jimmy McAndrew, Wells Fargo Home Mortgage Mortgage Consultant; Charles Nipp, Principle of Parkwood Business Properties; and Joe Dobson of Coldwell Banker Schneidmiller who discussed Land and Rural Properties. Next we had a very lively and informative talk by economist John Mitchell of M&H Economic Consultants. He did a fantastic job of showing economic trends and future projections for both the Pacific Northwest and the United States. Following him was Alivia Metts who works for the Idaho Department of Labor as a regional labor economist. She spoke to Idaho specifically as it relates to the workforce economy. After lunch was a funding source panel, which was a group of bankers and broker/dealers from various size banks and companies.

Jim Branson, Senior Vice President/Director of Retail Banking for Washington Trust Bank, Alan Wolfe, Director of Branches for Spokane Teachers Credit Union, and Shawny Le, Compliance Officer for Pennaluna& Co.

At this point we packed up and drove out to Buck Knives. We were broken up into groups and able to tour the facility where they make the knives. After that, we went up to the conference room and got to hear Patty Shea, Vice Chair of Jobs Plus, talk about what they do at Jobs Plus and how they help companies relocate to North Idaho. The final panel consisted of John Renzi, Supply Chain Director for Buck Knives; Ron Nilson, President of Ground Force Manufacturing; Dennis Staver, Platform President of Esterline; Timothy Komberec, President Empire Airlines; and Ryan Arnold, Executive Director Innovation Collective. These gentlemen were able to speak to running a company through economic change, and how they have all been successful through good and bad times.

he Best Class Ever started the day off with a dynamic panel representing local government. We were honored to hear from former Coeur d’Alene Mayor Sandi Bloem, Post Falls Mayor Rob Jacobson, and Dalton Gardens Council President Steve Roberge. The panel shared their insights on some of the challenges of being an elected official (in the words of Ms. Bloem: “[work/life] balance is overrated”), current issues in the community, and how to get involved. All panelists emphasized the importance of listening to your constituents, being fair, building consensus, and not taking things personally. A vital component of effective public leadership is to surround oneself with a team of experts. A few of the challenges in our community include economic development and increasing livable-wage jobs. We can work toward building our economy and attracting workers and new companies through supporting both diversity and education, and valuing public spaces. For those interested in being involved in city politics and lobbying effectively, the panel suggested participating in various commissions and committees to learn process and direction. Ms. Bloem emphasized the importance of preparation and having a clear spokesperson when lobbying for a specific interest. The panel representing county government, comprised of Assessor Mike McDowell, Councilman Todd Tondee, and Teasurer Tom Malzahn, educated us on the constitutional responsibilities of county officials and a few of the projects they are working on. Some of these include land use codes, addressing overcrowded jails, equitable taxation, and the airport expansion. A challenge for these officials is educating their constituents as to what the powers (and lack thereof) of the county encompass. House Representative Luke Malek discussed some of the challenges (and massive amounts of reading) involved in passing legislation, and the rewards of serving the people’s interests in crucial matters such as education, health care, and the economy. Karen Roetter and Judy Morbeck, regional directors for senators Labrador and Crapo, respectively, related the importance of building trust and rapport with the constituency. Each travels thousands of miles each term to visit state’s districts and listen to the people’s concerns. A sure highlight of the day was the mock city council meeting, debating the legality of adult dance club permits vis-à-vis those of a church meeting house. Compassionate Cindy called on the council to consider her Christian case, Alright Alright Alright Alison was appropriately appalled with adult entertainment in her backyard, and Badass Bill brilliantly bespoke the benefits of bedazzled babes for business. Who knew our class had so many talented thespians?! After lunch we boarded the bus, then took a soggy walk down from I-90 to the Veterans Memorial Bridge. A fascinating tour of the dimly illuminated, echoing underbelly of the bridge conveyed the impressive engineering capabilities required to build and maintain the important thoroughfare. Next we headed north to the Lakes Highway District; our panel consisted of Eric Shanley (Lakes district), John Pankratz (East district), and Kelley Browsberger (Post Falls district). Each described some of the technology used and the importance of inter-district collaboration to efficiently manage the formidable task of keeping our roadways clear and wellmaintained. Our last stop took us to the Coeur d’Alene airport for a presentation from airport manager Greg Delavan. Since 1940 the airport has been an important industry for the community, and now boasts more takeoffs and landings than Spokane International and contributes millions to our local economy. Airport operations include hangar real estate, a firefighter bomber base, vintage B17 flights, aircraft club fly-ins, Empire airlines, and a thriving base for corporate jets. The airport plans to extend the runways to increase the safety area surrounding the airport and to attract larger aircraft. A cruise down the runways in the bus and a walk through the massive Empire hangar completed our tour. The work our public officials and support staff do for the community is incredible; we thank them for a fun, informative day!

n the first snowy day in November, the class of 2014 gathered at KTEC on the Rathdrum prairie for Education Day. We started with Superintendent of Schools Matthew Handelman, who introduced us to Idaho Teachers of the Year Jamie Esler (2014), Katie Pemberton (2013), and Erin Lenz (2012). Each discussed the goals of the Coeur d’Alene School District, such as individualized and multi-tiered support, and emphasis on early childhood education. Teachers and classrooms are embracing advanced and blended learning through technology and educating youth in digital citizenship. Despite a shoestring budget, we can be proud that students from our city are academically outperforming the rest of the state, thanks to community engagement and generous partnerships. We were given outstanding student-led tours of the KTEC facilities, where teens acquire work skills in construction, information technology, welding, hospitality, nursing, and vehicle maintenance. Each program emphasizes not only technical abilities but also the soft skills needed to be successful. The class braved slick roads back to North Idaho College for our next round of panelists, which represented school choice. Administrators from Holy Family Catholic School, Coeur d’Alene Charter Academy, North Idaho STEM Charter School, the Idaho Digital Learning Academy, and homeschooling options spoke passionately about their respective methods. We are fortunate to have multiple options for elementary and secondary education in our community, so students of diverse learning abilities and situations can have many opportunities to succeed. After a short break, we heard from a panel of educational officials. First, Doug Jaworski from the Excel Foundation, shared his gratification that through successful fundraising he is able to “say yes to creativity and innovation at the teacher level.” Excel grants range from $25-$9000, and it has distributed over $1 million and 900 grants during the last 7 years. Not surprisingly, grant proposals for technology have been on the rise. Delegates from the School District- and NIC Boards of Trustees and the Idaho State Board of Education spoke on the topic of supporting financial needs of education systems. It is challenging to balance funding gaps at the state and local level while keeping student needs and high standards a top priority, and maintaining fair teacher advancement. A culture shift is needed: one that values higher education and responds to demands for both technological skills and soft skills rather than just manual labor, especially in this area where economically vital industries like mining and logging are becoming increasingly automated. Education officials are striving to achieve a goal of 60% of Idaho adults receiving some kind of degree. The panel also shared concerns over the needs of under-resourced students and acknowledged initiatives trying to meet those needs, such as the backpack/food program, the locker program in collaboration with the Coeur group, and bus transportation for displaced students. Last counts showed 130 homeless students in the district, and shockingly, the average age of a homeless person in Coeur d’Alene is 6. During lunch, we played a version of “Are You Smarter than A 5th Grader?”….apparently the class of 2014 is not. At the top of the class, Meticulous Marie and Kickass Keri scored 75% (that’s only a C, folks), but others garnered laughs and prizes for very creative answers. Afterward, we toured the Meyer Health and Sciences building and experienced cutting edge professional-technical education training facilities for nursing, physical therapy, radiology, phlebotomy, and industries that benefit from dissecting cats. We participated in a rotation of nursing activities provided by students of that program. Our last stop took us to Sorensen Magnet School, where a team of confident elementary students proudly led us on a tour through their school. Evidence of the school’s emphasis on integrating art throughout learning is everywhere: murals, music, performance, and creativity abound. The final speakers of the day represented post-secondary learning opportunities. Becky Byers from University of Idaho, Rocky Owens from Lewis-Clark State College, and Sara Schmelzer at North Idaho College work together through their respective schools to achieve academic goals. They are committed to recruiting students by providing quality, valuable degree options that meet the needs of local businesses and organizations. All three colleges have seen an increase in demand for nursing, business administration, and social work in the area. Additionally, the “Education Corridor” serves a large percentage of nontraditional students. Finally, former principal and chair of the Chamber of Commerce Education Committee Pam Pratt, eloquently summarized key issues and needs in the community, and shared the Chamber’s commitment to developing learning opportunities. These include cultivating links between business and education or “college to career,” building early childhood education programs, increasing rates of college completion, and continuing to develop the higher education campus. Pratt encouraged anyone passionate about education in our community to join the Chamber Committee. We were very fortunate to meet key players in Coeur d’Alene who are dedicated to the culture of education, and lobbying for a paradigm shift that values education and is willing to pay for it in order to reap long-term opportunities. We learned of a correlation between male literacy at 3rd grade and the likelihood of incarceration by age 25, illustrating the truly fundamental importance of education. As a Sorensen teacher poignantly stated, “Educating children is how we can literally change the world.” The work of teachers, administrators, and support staff in Coeur d’Alene is crucial to building an informed and skilled community. We are appreciative of diverse choices and opportunities for learning. 18

midst the unparalleled natural beauty and vibrant community we call home, there lies a hard truth: for too many of our neighbors, life is an uphill battle and a constant struggle. For our final session—Quality of Life—we were privileged to hear from leaders in the community who work tirelessly to address some of these struggles. Joyce Broadsword, regional director for the Department of Health and Welfare, started us off. She discussed the role of the Department in the community, providing essential programs like TANF, SNAP/food stamps, Medicaid, vital statistics, and working in collaboration with other agencies like University of Idaho and Community Action Partnership. Joyce is a proponent of Medicaid expansion for the working poor who fall through the cracks in the Affordable Care Act and state healthcare. We then participated in a poverty simulation, wherein classmates became families with real-world situations to deal with. We went through an hour-long “month” struggling to pay bills, receive social services, stay out of jail, care for children, avoid eviction, hold a job, and so on. We experienced tangible stress and frustration, living crisis to crisis in the “tyranny of the moment.” We quickly realized how difficult it can be for under-resourced families to meet obligations, access supportive services, and plan for the future. Our class proved to be resourceful—some found it was easier to deal “drugs” (sugar packets) than to hold a steady job, but all families were at least able to stay housed. Mark Tucker, Executive Director for United Way of Kootenai County, presented next. Nonprofit organizations need foremost 1) money and 2) volunteers; United Way works to meet that need through stewarding grants and through the Volunteer Center, which connects those who want to serve with opportunities in the community. In 2013 UWKC distributed over $200,000 to community nonprofits in areas of health, education, and income/basic needs. Currently it is developing a Kindergarten Readiness program, as research shows a strong correlation between preschool preparedness and future graduation rates. United Way of Kootenai County is proud of the fact that fully 100% of donations go to local needs. It continually strives to understand our community so as to best administer funds and volunteers. Mark encouraged us to visit the Volunteer Center at www.kootenaiunitedway.org for opportunities to support our local nonprofits. The Youth Services panel welcomed Christina Hull from Children’s Village, Dan English from CASA, Amanda Smith from Anchor House/Idaho Youth Ranch, and Kip Sharbono from the Kroc Center. Each has a similar mission to serve children and young adults in need, though each works in a slightly different capacity. All share a commitment to serving the “whole child”—making sure basic as well as emotional and psychological needs are met. The delegates were recognized for working in difficult situations; when asked what drives them, they answered “Do for one what you wish you could do for all.” Wise words from a dedicated and compassionate group. After lunch, the next panel focused on Senior Services and end-of-life care. John Corcoran founded ElderHelp to provide seniors with firewood, access ramps, and other services. PJ Christo spoke passionately on the epidemic of Alzheimer’s disease. The Alzheimer’s Association offers support groups, education resources, a 24-hour hotline, and more to individuals and families dealing with this disease. Jamie Anderson, Director of Marketing and Development for Orchard Ridge—our host location for the morning—described the Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care programs that Orchard Ridge offers. As a 93-year-old institution and partner in the community, Orchard Ridge provides subsidized housing and quality care for low-income seniors. Finally, Nancy Cowley shared the support services and resources Hospice North Idaho provides to end-of-life patients and their families. The class then headed to the St. Vincent de Paul HELP Center, where multiple social service agencies operate in one location to maximize the reach of limited resources for the homeless and those in deep poverty. We toured St Vincent’s campus, including men’s and women’s emergency shelters, Family Transitional Housing, thrift store warehouse, and community art studio. St Vincent serves thousands of homeless and very low-income singles and families each year, with the goal of stabilizing those in crisis and empowering them to become independent. We trooped on to Community Action Partnership and, with Community Engagement Director Mark Haberman, toured the impressive food bank facility located in the Atlas Industrial Park. CAPS distributed over 2 million pounds of food in 2014 to nearly 1/7th of the population in Kootenai County, including 2500 Thanksgiving baskets. The majority of food goes to children and seniors, reminding us how critical food banks are as a conduit between need and resources in the community. Finally, we visited TESH, Inc., which provides occupational and life skills opportunities to individuals with disabilities. Director Frances Huffman shared how exciting her work is, meeting the participants where they are at, helping set challenges and goals, and celebrating successes. TESH boasts a Vocational Center, Activity Center, Life Skills training, a Children’s Program which includes summer day camps, and on-site job coaching. We thank the alumni for an excellent session that spotlighted some incredible humanitarians in our community, illuminated disparities, and inspired us to serve in our leadership potential. 20

hough the day was gray and chilly, the class of 2014 was treated to a stunning backdrop of frosty mountains and Lake Coeur d’Alene from the Elk Point event venue for our final session together. After getting reacquainted with our dedicated planners, we dove in to the essentials of creating an unforgettable session, combing over all the best and the critiques of our year and energetically brainstorming lots of ideas for the class of 2015. Our fantastic 2013 planners kept it fresh with a Memory Madness game to see how well we remembered our classmates’ names, occupations, and nicknames. Congratulations to Meticulous Marie for a perfect score! Our own Tall Tom also won some swag—this time for the fewest correct answers. With our hard-earned fun-fine money, the class decided to join forces with alumni to throw a summer Leadership party for past graduates to be held in June 2015. Earnings from the soiree will be divided equally among the nonprofits represented in our class—Family Promise of North Idaho, Trinity Group Homes, and St Vincent de Paul. A relaxed lunch gave us time to socialize with classmates, and afterward we submitted votes for class awards and elected 2014 representatives to the Leadership Committee. Finally, we wrapped up our day with a lively trivia activity that tested our recall of key facts and tidbits learned during the year’s sessions. Our final day was the perfect culmination to the ten incredible sessions we had, and we are grateful to the outstanding team of planners who shaped our experience. We are honored to have had the opportunity to gain insider perspective in our community and to build relationships with the leaders Coeur d’Alene past, present, and future. Look out for the luminaries of Leadership class of 2014—Best Class Ever!

The memorable info gained in each specific industry and how they network together to benefit our community was wonderfully insightful.
