​John Goodman, our vice president of government affairs, is a passionate advocate for our regional business community. He measures success by honesty, integrity, and through bold leadership.

With more than 20 years of experience in government affairs, John has been instrumental in driving high-impact legislation, such as reducing the North Carolina tax rate from the highest to one of the lowest in the Southeast U.S. over a two-year span.

Prior to joining the Raleigh Chamber, John founded Capital City Consulting, specializing in government affairs, strategic planning, and focused communications. He also spent nearly 10 years as the director of government affairs for the North Carolina Chamber.

John moved to North Carolina to play soccer at Campbell University and he has called the Tar Heel State home ever since. He lives in Raleigh, where soccer remains a big part of his life. John coaches youth soccer through North Carolina FC Youth and the Neuse River Futbol Alliance.
​
He is excited to work with you.

Raleigh Chamber YPN Takeaways about Dorothea Dix Park

10/10/2019

Raleigh YPN recently had a chance to peek at all of the exciting things happening at Dorothea Dix Park. The event was packed with members eager to see what the park had to offer. The event had many key takeaways, but the following stood out.
  1.  A Park for Everyone, Built by Everyone. This great tagline sums up what this park is really about,  us. Sean Malone, president and CEO of the Dorothea Dix Park Conservancy, emphasized the importance of making an attraction from which everyone could benefit. To accomplish this over the course of 18 months, more than 65,000 residents were engaged for their input.
  2. Once-in-a-generation Opportunity. As Adrian Benepe, director of national programs for The Trust for Public Land, put it, “Dorothea Dix Park is the most important and exciting park project in America today.” The park is located in the heart of Raleigh. It will feature vast open areas, as well as community gathering places with more infrastructure. Parks that are within a close proximity to a downtown with this much space are rare, making this project particularly exciting.
  3. Get Involved. The easiest way to get involved is to stay in the know. By going to https://dixpark.org/get-involved, you can enter your email and receive updates. Additionally, people can sign up to volunteer. Volunteers are needed now and will continue to be needed as the project moves forward. Donations are also welcomed.
For more information, please go to https://dixpark.org/. Also, be sure to sign up for the next Raleigh YPN event for more exciting programs at raleighchamber.org/events.
