Chamber Board members Dr. Noreen Carrocci from Newman University and Dr. Cindy Claycomb from Wichita State University stopped to take a closer look at the infographic local young creatives developed to promote Wichita. The infographic was turned into a banner that was displayed at the November meeting of the Board of Directors.
We've had a great response to the infographic that was published in the
Wichita Eagle last week as part of our monthly update. Mary Eves of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices contacted us to let us know that she thought it was a valuable tool for realtors. Eves said, "I loved the concept and the proactive way it reaches millennials, and even those of us who aren't millennials."
We're sharing that monthly update again on our blog just in case you missed it. You'll also find instructions for downloading the
UnpredICTably Amazing infographic to incorporate in your own recruitment packages.
At the Chamber we've turned the infographic into a banner that we've been displaying in our Board Room and we've added a digital version of it to our website.

11 reasons why millennials are proud to call Wichita home
Wichitans have been sharing all the unique things they love about their city through a Chamber-led #ILoveWichita social media campaign since early 2015. With nearly 5,000 posts on Instagram and almost 2,000 posts on Twitter, people from across the community have created an authentic and constantly-updated digital brochure with images showing the best places to eat, drink, shop, work and experience cultural events in Wichita.
A group of young professionals took that campaign a step further last month by creating an infographic titled
UnpredICTably Amazing. Five creative teammates at
Sullivan Higdon & Sink (SHS) turned their favorite aspects about living and working in the community into a visually appealing format that can be shared with their peers around the nation.
One of the creatives on the SHS team, Jamil Malone is also a member of the Chamber’s
Young Professionals of Wichita (YPW). Malone said, “We decided that Wichita deserves to be highlighted as the unpredictably amazing community that we experience every day. We wanted to help promote our community and accelerate the #ILoveWichita conversation.”
Our thanks to
Jason Comerford, Austin Hillard, Jamil Malone, Mike McCoy and Meg Stessman for clearly demonstrating that the single best thing about Wichita is the passion, generosity and creativity of the people who live and work here.
