Omaha Executive Institute

The Omaha Executive Institute (OEI) is a program offered by the Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce exclusively for senior level executives and their spouses who are new to their positions and/or new to the community. OEI is offered once a year with monthly seminars in October – May. Enrollment is limited to 35 individuals. The program explores the issues, challenges and opportunities of Greater Omaha. Topics are selected to help participants understand the community in which they are now living and doing business.

Monthly seminars are held from 5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m. with programming and dinner. Networking time is included with each seminar to encourage interaction among participants and speakers. We will observe precautionary measures as needed to promote safety, adjusting to a virtual setting if circumstances dictate.
