"Leadership Labs" are presentations hosted at Texas State University's prestigious STAR One Conference Center inside STAR Park. They offer a dynamic platform for business leaders to share insights, unveil their lessons learned, and highlight the innovation and resilience in the San Marcos region.

On Dec. 5, we're excited to welcome Lauren Willis, Director of Government & Community Affairs at the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA), as the second featured speaker in this new series. Lauren brings a wealth of knowledge and leadership experience, overseeing government and public relations, customer service, and board of director engagement at GBRA.

With a B.S. and M.S. in Agricultural Leadership, Education & Communication from Texas A&M University, Lauren has dedicated her career to building bridges between government, industry, and communities. At this session, she'll provide an insightful overview of GBRA's mission and operations.

This is a unique opportunity to hear directly from a leader shaping the future of water resources in Central Texas. Whether you're a business owner, community leader, or curious resident, you'll gain valuable insights into how GBRA's work impacts our region and helps ensure a sustainable future.

Each event is held in person over lunch, and also professionally recorded and uploaded to the Chamber's YouTube page for regional publicity and world-wide viewing after the event!
