FACP Honors
Manatee Chamber's
Jacki Dezelski
as Its Chamber
Professional of the Year
The Florida Association of Chamber Professionals (FACP) announced its selection for
Florida’s top Chamber of Commerce professional at its Spring Conference, held May 7-8,
2015, at the Holiday Inn Tampa Westshore/Airport. We are so proud that Jacki Dezelski,
Executive Vice President at the Manatee Chamber, was honored with this award for her
outstanding achievement and dedication to the industry. This is the first year that FACP
has named a Chamber Professional of the Year as a complementary award to its annual
Chamber Executive of the Year Award, which is announced each Fall.
The prestigious Chamber Professional of the Year Award acknowledges a chamber
professional who merits recognition for exemplary service. Among other requirements,
the recipient must have been in the chamber industry for a minimum of three years and
must be nominated by their President/CEO. Nominations must include an essay detailing
the employee’s contribution in at least three of the following areas: Customer Service,
Service Projects, Leadership, Mentoring, Self Improvement, Efficiency, Problem Solving
and Teamwork.
During the award presentation - which was a total surprise for Jacki as she sat in the
audience - it was noted that “the face of the Manatee Chamber” is often what comes
to mind for many members when her name is
mentioned. Having served the Manatee Chamber’s
members and our community for nearly two decades,
Jacki epitomizes the servitude, leadership and
team concept all Chamber professionals should
strive towards. Because of her tireless efforts and
exemplary leadership, the Manatee Chamber was
again designated as a Five-Star Accredited Chamber
by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce - an elite status
achieved by only 1.2% of the 7,000 chambers in the
country.
“We are extremely fortunate to have Jacki as an
integral part of the Manatee Chamber and even
more important, a part of the community,” says Rae
Dowling, Area Manager for FPL and Immediate Past
Chair of the Manatee Chamber Board of Directors.
“Jacki is a master at finding solutions that maximize
the effectiveness and usefulness of the Chamber
staff, volunteers and members.”
“FACP is pleased to present the Inaugural
Professional of the Year Award to Jacki Dezelski,”
noted Tammy Bracewell, FACP Executive Director.
“She exemplifies the true Chamber of Commerce
professional – someone who is dedicated to the
betterment of their Chamber, the community and its
members,” added Bracewell.
FACP is a statewide organization whose mission is
“advancing excellence in chamber management”
and whose vision is “enhancing Florida's business
communities by cultivating successful chamber
professionals.”

PLATINUM MEMBER
SPOTLIGHT
Conservative, Pragmatic and Proud
of the Way We Do Business
plan may include retirement planning, cash
flow analysis, education funding, insurance,
estate planning and more.
Since our founding, Raymond James’
primary goal has been to meet the
investment and financial planning needs of
individuals. It was a novel approach back
then, when most firms were focused on
little more than selling stocks and mutual
funds. And 50 years later, we’re proud that
we continue leading the way.
That commitment defines everything we
do – and determines how we do it – from
the time we devote to understanding our
clients’ personal circumstances to the
effort and skill we put into developing plans
based on well-crafted solutions. Our goal
has never been to be the biggest; it has
always been to be the best. That objective
is exemplified by our:
• Focus on people, not product
• Conservative approach
• Independent spirit
• Individualized solutions
• Tools and strategies tailored to specific objectives
• Technology that meets client needs
Investments are a means to an end, whether
the goal is a comfortable retirement, a
grandchild’s education or a legacy for future
generations. That means our approach
is goal-based, not transaction-focused.
Our objective is to establish a long-term
relationship with you, understand what you
hope to accomplish during your life and
with your legacy, devise the appropriate
goal focused solutions to meet those
objectives, monitor results, and suggest
and implement changes as needed.
Our recommendations stem from a
comprehensive
assessment
of
your
complete financial picture, including
balancing your shorter-term requirements
with your long-term goals and the amount
and type of risk you can comfortably and
appropriately assume.
Advantages of working with Bruce:
• You
have the flexibility to chose
between fee-based accounts: either
discretionary or non-discretionary, or a
traditional commission account.
• You
receive easy-to-read monthly
statements and quarterly performance
reports.
• He

office in Lakewood Ranch.
In our view, while factors such as market
fluctuations and interest-rate movements
have a significant bearing on your portfolio,
our focus should always be whether, at the
end of the day, you will have the resources
you need to meet your core objectives.
“Each client is different and unique.
Therefore, they should have a
customized portfolio.”

essential information to file your tax
return and will communicate with your

will contact you regularly to
discuss your account, market conditions,
and updates to your plan.
Diversification and strategic asset allocation do not ensure
a profit or protect against a loss. Investments are subject

process of rebalancing may carry tax consequences.
Changes in tax laws may occur at any time and could
have a substantial impact upon each person's situation.

Avoiding
Fraud on Your
Business Sunbiz Account
If you have a registered business entity, chances are you know about the Florida
Division of Corporations and its website www.sunbiz.org. This great website is very
user friendly and a true credit to our state government, except for one little thing – it
is so easy that anyone can literally steal your corporation or LLC with almost no trace
and for less than one hundred dollars!
A crook that knows where your business banks (any employee or vendor would know
that) can simply change the business’ address and divert all notices and statements
away, order new checks, and empty the account.
Until this information is better protected, you are encouraged to:
- Regularly check your corporation or other business entity at www.sunbiz.org

Thank You to Our 130+ Project Teach Volunteers
A very special thank you to more than 130 volunteers who
participated in Project T.E.A.C.H. On Friday, May 1, our volunteers
gathered at 7:30 AM at Freedom Village Retirement Community
for a breakfast orientation sponsored by Manatee Education
Foundation. At 8:30, the volunteers headed to their fourth grade
classes all over Manatee County where they spent an hour with
a classroom full of future entrepreneurs and business owners. In
all, we reached 2,600 students in 120 classrooms at 28 schools!
The volunteers shared their business backgrounds and perspectives with the fourth
graders. Students then thought about what business they would like to be in by drawing
their own business cards. Dreams and ideas of the students ranged from astronauts to zoo
keepers and many things in between. Without the help of our sponsor, Manatee Education
Foundation, and the support of Tropicana, Freedom Village, and Palm Printing, this year’s
program would not have been such a success. For more information about Project
T.E.A.C.H. and other workforce education initiatives, please contact Jahna Leinhauser at
941-748-4842, ext. 172.

Congratulations!
The Manatee Chamber of Commerce named its 2015 Champions of Healthcare at a
gala awards breakfast on May 21. More than 300 people attended the awards event
in Lakewood Ranch to honor 74 nominees, 22 finalists and nine award winners.
"Once again this year, we received tremendous support for the Champions of
Healthcare Awards," said Jacki Dezelski, Executive Vice President for the Manatee
Chamber of Commerce. "These awards celebrate the important work so many
people, programs, business and institutions are doing in Manatee County to support
healthcare access and delivery, particularly work that is above and beyond anyone's
'day job.' The awards are designed to recognize impact, excellence and dedication.
The Champions of Healthcare Awards has become a signature program and this
year's program is a testament to the amazing work being done in our community.
Added to that is what a great morning it is! We're usually moved to tears because of
the generosity and service we hear about during the program."
Plans are already underway for next year's program and it is not too early to begin
thinking about nominating a deserving individual, organization, business or program
for the awards. It's also not too early to secure your sponsorship for the 2016
Champions of Healthcare Awards. Please contact Jacki Dezelski at 941-748-4842,

Why I Love the Chamber...
Being a part of the Manatee
Chamber has afforded me
and my company, Coastal Eye
Institute (formerly Manatee
Sarasota Eye Clinic), numerous
opportunities. Most importantly
we have seen an increase in
the awareness of our practice
throughout the community. In
addition, we have been able
to gain insightful knowledge
and acquire useful skills from
the numerous seminar and
educational offerings.
As an active member of the
Leadership Committee for the
Manatee Young Professionals, I feel privileged to be able to
provide my input in the planning and direction of our prestigious
group. Through MYP I have made beneficial business contacts
and formed sincere friendships.
Thanks to the Chamber, I am able to network with other
professionals and receive great joy while doing so!
