We are thrilled to cordially invite you to our Virtual Town Hall on September 5th at 9:00 AM (MT) via Zoom. This event marks an exciting moment as we introduce GBC’s new Executive Director, Yolanda Richard!

The installment of our new ED began with a thoughtful two-month interview process, facilitated by a dynamic team of board members, staff, and GBC members. Throughout this period, Yolanda consistently exhibited compassionate, capable, and ethical leadership qualities that deeply impressed and inspired us. We heard her “why,” — her passion for small businesses and vision for the future of GBC, her love for the State of Colorado and its rural communities. We heard her commitment to advocacy, racial and economic justice, and climate justice. We saw her compassion, warmth, and kindness towards our staff and members. It was by no surprise that all of our efforts culminated in a unanimous vote to install her as our new Executive Director.
