LEADERS

COVER story OMAHA FIRE DEPARTMENT’S FIRE CHIEF KATHY BOSSMAN.

A Q&A WITH Kathy Bossman OMAHA’S FIRST FEMALE FIRE CHIEF

This past March, Kathy Bossman was appointed the Omaha Fire Department’s first female fire chief. Starting as a firefighter paramedic in 1997, she was promoted to captain in 2004. She climbed the ranks to battalion chief in 2010, then in 2017 became assistant chief, the first female to hold that position. She was sworn in as fire chief in April. Q) How does it feel to be Omaha’s first female fire chief? A) It is exciting! Although, I don’t often take time to really consider the significance of being the first female fire chief for the City of Omaha. I start each day with gratitude and a long to-do list! I am thankful that I can serve in this capacity and am dedicated to making positive changes for the Omaha Fire Department. Q) Tell us about your career. What are you most proud of? A) I began my career in 1997. I was the only female in my academy class, and have always worked hard to prove that I can do this job. The Omaha Fire Department hired its first female firefighters in 1987.

They faced greater challenges than I did, and I am thankful for their enthusiasm and perseverance. I spent several years working in different parts of the city. I worked on fire engines, fire trucks, and medic units, and found working as a paramedic the most rewarding position. The first baby I delivered was in the back of a medic unit during a snowstorm. That baby would now be around 24 years old! Becoming fire chief was never in my career plan. I figured I would retire at the rank of captain, or maybe battalion chief. As I was promoted up the ranks, though, each promotional opportunity felt like a natural progression for me. Each position provided me with new challenges and experiences. I find many aspects of being a firefighter rewarding, but I am most proud of my appointment as fire chief. I am able to show young women that they can have a successful career in the fire service, and they can also be department leaders. I sought out mentorship, educational opportunities, and professional development as I prepared myself for this role.

Q) Did you always want to be a firefighter? A) I never had plans to become a firefighter when I was younger. I did not know anyone who worked as a firefighter when I was growing up. I went to college in Lincoln and earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology. I planned to go to physical therapy school. I applied two times but did not get accepted. I reevaluated and decided to go to paramedic school at Creighton University. Not getting accepted to physical therapy school was the best thing that ever happened to me! During my paramedic training, we completed field training with the Omaha Fire Department. I was able to get an inside look at the impact firefighters have during their service to the community. I found the work exciting and liked the idea that each shift could bring different challenges. Q) Now that you have been in the fire chief post for several months, what changes have you made? A) I am learning my role and keeping various programs moving forward. I have a great team of assistant chiefs, and I rely heavily on them to manage the day-to-day operations and share our department goals. I maintain an open-door policy and enjoy hearing the input and suggestions from members of the department. We are fortunate to have some incredibly smart members working at every rank. I value their ideas and perspectives. As a team, we are actively working to update several policies as well as developing future training for our firefighters. Q) What is your advice to other women pursuing a career in firefighting? A) I strongly encourage young women to consider a career in the fire service. When I started, I was a bit naive to the incredible opportunities that exist. First, we need women who enjoy a team environment, and who enjoy both physical and mental challenges. All employees begin their careers learning how to be a firefighter. We provide all training, including EMT certification. We need women who are interested in becoming paramedics, inspectors, instructors, IT specialists, fire investigators, data specialists, and policy writers – to name a few positions! We need women who are willing to help lead our crews, battalions, and divisions. Any woman interested in a career in the fire service is encouraged to contact us via our website and request a fire station tour. We will show them what the job entails and answer any questions they may have. I am proud of our department, and we are happy to share information on the service we provide to the citizens of Omaha. Q) What are some of the biggest challenges you face in 2024? A) One challenge we are facing in 2024 is the loss of many veteran department members as they retire. The end of 2023 and early 2024 will have dozens of retirements. We will have many young members promoted to higher ranks and learning how to lead at new levels. Although the promotional process can be stressful for those going

through it, I am excited to see them thrive in their new roles. Newly promoted members bring fresh perspectives and leadership styles which often result in improved service to our community. Also in 2024, the Omaha Fire Department is providing grant-funded wellness physicals and cancer screenings to firefighters who want to participate in the free program. Firefighters can face a higher level of carcinogens compared to the normal population. We have instituted steps that reduce that cancer risk, but these screenings will be an important component in supporting the health and well-being of our firefighters. The Omaha Fire Department will be working hard to coordinate scheduling so each firefighter who requests a physical will receive it. Q) What are your goals for the City of Omaha Fire Department? A) My goals for the Omaha Fire Department are to provide a high level of service to the citizens while continuing to be progressive and innovative in the development of our policies and procedures. I want firefighters from every rank to feel valued and be engaged in the growth of our department. Q) What is your leadership style? A) I love discussing leadership, and earned my master’s degree in organizational leadership. I would describe myself as an authentic leader. I recall a moment when I was first promoted to the rank of battalion chief, and I was questioning how I would fit the mold of my predecessors. I was worried that I had to ‘act’ like my male role models, and I knew that would seem disingenuous. I finally made a conscious decision to just be myself. I am a listener, and a thinker. I like to hear various opinions and consider the best scenario moving forward. Sometimes I have a great deal of time to think through options, other times, for example, at a fire scene, decisions have to be made very quickly. Lives can depend on it. Q) What is something about you that not everyone knows? A) I am perfectly happy relaxing at home. I love watching sports, mostly softball and football. The older I get, I am so impressed by the athleticism of the players. I appreciate the dedication each athlete has to his or her team’s success. I also enjoy audiobooks and often listen to suspenseful, murder mystery books while driving. One final unusual fact – I share a group chat with a number of highranking female fire chiefs from across the country, and we challenge each other to complete the Wordle online each day! Q) What are your hobbies? A) I spent many years supporting my two daughters as they played travel softball and then marching band. Now that they are in college, I enjoy spending time with my husband and our dog. We occasionally travel and spend time with family and friends.

2023 YEAR IN REVIEW! THE PEOPLE, PLACES & EVENTS TO REMEMBER

A LOOK BACK ON THE PEOPLE, PLACES AND EVENTS THAT MADE AN IMPACT ON GREATER OMAHA, LINCOLN AND COUNCIL BLUFFS IN 2023. EDITOR’S NOTE: Reflecting on the past year, it’s no secret that our community is inherently strong. We as people and organizations lift one another up to achieve greater things. Omaha swore in its first female fire chief, many companies moved into improved facilities and major corporations made investments in the business community. While challenges remain with labor shortages and high interest rates, the Midlands business community has much to be proud of in 2023.

THREE ORGANIZATIONS BECOME INNOVATION HUBS In November, a year after opening applications, the Nebraska Department of Economic Development announced the first three organizations receiving an innovation hub (iHub) designation. In a statement, the Nebraska Department of Economic Development noted, “Designation as an iHub signals that an organization has demonstrated experience with innovation programs, has an articulated management structure and plan, has assets and resources at its disposal to drive innovation, and has successfully engaged partners in pursuit of its strategic objectives.” The first organization to receive the designation is the Fermentation Collaborative, a Bio Nebraska initiative. The Fermentation Collaborative is a partnership between the bioscience industry and Nebraska colleges and universities to develop, coordinate, and promote an emerging fermentation industry in Nebraska. Based in Lincoln, the organization is close to partners Invest Nebraska and Southeast Community College. “The Fermentation Collaborative’s iHub designation gives the Collaborative formal recognition and will help accelerate its purpose to grow a precision fermentation workforce, cultivate the entrepreneurship innovation fermentation ecosystem, and sustain a vibrant fermentation industry in Nebraska,” said Rob Owen, Bio Nebraska executive director. The second organization is the Omaha Innovation Connection Hub is focused on helping the North Omaha community, as well as local universities, colleges, and entrepreneurs in the tech field. Lastly, the Julian and Brittany Young Foundation was established to help entrepreneurs start and build successful businesses in North Omaha. “We saw the iHub designation as a tremendous opportunity to partner with our state government to build on what we’ve been doing over the last decade,” said Julian Young, chief executive officer, and Brittany Young, chief operating officer, in a statement. “We look forward to increasing the impact on Nebraska-based entrepreneurs.”

JET LINX GEARS UP FOR ANNIVERSARY Just ahead of its 25th anniversary, Jet Linx celebrated two major developments. The first came in July when Jamie Walker, son of founder Denny Walker, announced that he would be moving to chairman of the board. Industry veteran Brent Wouters was announced as the new chief executive officer. Wouter previously served as president and CEO of BRENT WOUTERS Cirrus Aircraft, an aircraft manufacturer. During the 10 years he was with the company he saw it grow from a domestic startup to a best-selling aircraft in 60 countries. Then, in October, Jet Linx celebrated the grand opening of its brand-new, state-of-the-art flagship terminal at Eppley Airfield in Omaha. The original Omaha facility debuted in 2004 before the company’s nationwide expansion. “As we approach our company’s 25th anniversary, it seems fitting to return to our roots in Omaha as we enter a new phase of expansion and operational excellence,” said Jamie Walker, Jet Linx chairman. Omaha-based HDR designed the new 60,000-square-foot private terminal focused on creating a stress-free experience. The 28-foot-high doors can house the largest of business jets, and heated pavement ensures smooth departures and arrivals regardless of weather. The company, founded in 1999, is currently the third-largest private jet management company in the United States and as of April 2023 has the highest third-party safety certifications.

2023 Year in Review! VIREO SYSTEMS OPENS FIRST CREATINE PLANT IN THE U.S. In February Vireo Systems opened the first U.S. creatine & amino acids plant in nearby Plattsmouth. “We chose Plattsmouth, Nebraska for the first-ever creatine plant in the U.S. due to the incredible city, county, and state support we have gotten over the years since establishing our first holistic products manufacturing facility back in 2009,” said founder and President Mark Faulkner. He said the company plans to add 200 jobs to the area and forecasts $174 million in economic impact each year. Unless you’re an athlete, you might not have heard of creatine before. Traditionally it’s been used to help athletes increase endurance or reduce injuries, but studies show that a creatine supplement can also improve cognition and brain and bone health. Vireo Systems will be manufacturing its supplement, ​​CON-CRET, from this plant. “This year alone the plant has produced over 3.5 million units and volume is increasing,” Faulkner said.

2023 Year in Review! VOLLEYBALL SET TO SPIKE IN NEBRASKA MARKET It’s been a big year for volleyball in Nebraska. In February, the Pro Volleyball Federation announced its second team, The Omaha Supernovas. The team is backed by Danny White, Omahabased City + Ventures co-founder, and music artist Jason Derulo. The Omaha Supernovas will compete against the Atlanta Vibe, Columbus Fury, Grand Rapids Rise, Orlando Valkyries, San Diego Mojo, and two other unnamed teams. The Omaha Supernovas will face off with the Atlanta Vibe in the team’s first game of the 2024 season at CHI Health Center on January 24. In August, League One Volleyball (LOVB) announced that Omaha would be the fifth of six cities to host an affiliated pro-team. In an interview with MBJ, LOVB CEO Katlyn Gao said “We believe in the power of this market – and for good reason.” She referenced record-breaking attendance at collegiate games and the caliber of athletes in collegiate programs. “The market has bred incredible athletes, whom we are strongly tied to. Our robust pro roster includes Justine Wong-Orantes and Kelsey Robinson, who both hail from the University of Nebraska,” Gao said. Speaking of the university, it broke the world record for the largest crowd to watch a women’s sporting event when the University of Nebraska-Lincoln hosted the University of Nebraska at Omaha for an outdoor match.

The match, which was held at Memorial Stadium on August 20, 2023, welcomed 92,003 fans. The previous world record — 91,648 — was set during the UEFA Champions League match between Barcelona and Woldsburg on April 22, 2022, in Barcelona. At the time of the game, UNL also held the record for consecutive sell-outs for women’s regular season matches in the NCCA.

COVID-19 INITIATIVE CONTINUES DUE TO SUCCESS To help veterans through the claims process during COVID-19, the Nebraska Department of Veterans Affairs developed a virtual claims initiative that has resulted in nearly $2.9 million in retroactive benefits.

2023 Year in Review! MUD MILE COMMUNICATIONS JOINS OMAHA MARKET In early 2023, South Dakota-based Mud Mile Communications decided to expand, opening a second location in Omaha’s Blackstone Building. The company has over 100 international awards, including Emmys, Tellys, and W3 honors. “Omaha was exactly where we knew we needed to be for the next growth opportunity,” said Jolene Loetscher, CEO and co-founder. “It’s a business community that embraces innovation and storytelling. When we expanded with our Omaha office, it allowed us to come back to our roots.” She shared that the inspiration for the company name is, in fact, from the road in front of her family’s farm.

In September Mud Mile was also announced as one of the top 10 businesses in the Midwest being considered for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s Top Small Businesses. In total, 70 businesses were nominated from all 50 states, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico. Mud Mile focuses on a modular marketing strategy to help companies such as Coca-Cola, Sanford Health, McDonald’s, and, locally, Nebraska Methodist Hospital. Volunteering their time, Mud Mile created a pro-bono project that highlighted the impact of NMH’s Community Counseling Program. The program provides counseling services to kids in middle school, high school, and alternative programs in Omaha Public Schools. “The video they produced for us raises awareness about the program and sends a powerful message to donors about the impact it’s having on students and families throughout our community,” said Tracy Madden-McMahon, president and CEO of Methodist Hospital Foundation.

Solutions is one of the largest health care staffing companies in the U.S., with additional locations in California, Colorado, Ohio, Mississippi, North Carolina and Florida. “We were deeply honored to be recognized as one of the best places to work,” said Craig Meier, CEO of Medical Solutions. “We are committed to fostering a culture of inclusion and encouragement, where diverse perspectives are not only embraced but celebrated. This acknowledgment reaffirms our commitment to continue fostering an environment where every individual thrives, knowing they are valued, supported, and integral to our continued growth and success.”

COLLEGE OF SAINT MARY RECEIVES FUNDING FROM NASA In an effort to close the gender gap in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields, the College of Saint Mary was selected as one of seven women’s colleges to receive funding from NASA. Dr. Ganesh Naik, director of the chemistry and environmental sustainability programs and professor of chemistry applied for the grant on behalf of the college. Of the $5 million slated for the grant, CSM received $615,000 to improve access to education in the STEM fields as well as empower women to pursue degrees. “The goals of this program align with College of Saint Mary’s mission and strategic initiatives to provide access to an affordable education and to grow our inclusive campus culture,” said Dr. Kimberly Allen, CSM vice president of academic and student affairs in a June statement. “Furthermore, the program aims to create a holistic development model of STEM education for women.”

INNAGURAL MICROGRANTS SUPPORT FORMERLY INCARCERATED PERSONS In September the Platte Institute announced the inaugural round of microgrants to aid organizations assisting individuals previously incarcerated to secure stable employment. Organizations that received grants included Heart Ministry Center, On the Inside, Omaha Alternatives to Violence Project, Bridges to Hope, Q.U.E.E.N.S. Butterfly House, and Nebraskans Unafraid. “We realized that many groups are already doing things to promote the dignity and workforce capacity of those who have been previously incarcerated through their direct work with them,” said Laura Ebke, senior fellow at the Platte Institute.

“The microgrants were a way for us to provide assistance to organizations that are nonprofits, and sometimes heavily dependent on volunteers — a way for us to help the helpers who are already engaged in that arena.” For example, the Heart Ministry Center is helping individuals receive fulltime employment through job training and placement. “Grant funds are being used by graduates of the program to purchase clothing for their new jobs … Having new work clothes provides dignity for our graduates as they embark on their fresh start,” said Angie Grote, director of marketing and communications for the Heart Ministry Center.

THREE YEARS IN THE MAKING: GRETNA CROSSING OPENS Nearly three years after Gretna voters approved raising the city sales tax by half of a cent to build a new community park, that park finally opened in September. “Watching the community activate the Gretna Crossing YMCA and Gretna Crossing Park has been extremely inspiring. You can see by the engagement that this community is, and will be, healthier and more connected because of this outstanding investment,” said Rebecca Deterding, YMCA of Greater Omaha president & CEO. Designed to be a community hub for Gretna, the $60 million project at 21280 Capheart Rd. has an 18-hole disc golf course, dog parks, soccer fields, baseball and softball fields, batting cages, an outdoor water park, playgrounds, walking and biking trails, picnic areas and an amphitheater. In collaboration with Gretna Public Schools, the Gretna Crossing YMCA will provide a space for swim students to practice rather than being bussed into a facility in Omaha. “We are incredibly grateful for the collaboration with the City

STRENGTHENING THE STATE’S TECH CAPABILITIES The University of Nebraska-Lincoln announced a partnership with tech talent accelerator Skillstorm to fill talent gaps in the sector. Through Skillstorm UNL will offer a range of courses such as AWS, CompTIA, Salesforce, Appian, and Pega. Currently, about 5% of Nebraska’s workforce is in tech, and those professionals earn more than 60% of the average Nebraska worker.

TMCO NAMED MANUFACTURER OF THE YEAR The Nebraska Chamber named Lincoln-based TMCO Inc. Nebraska Manufacturer of the Year. “TMCO perfectly represents manufacturing in Nebraska. They’ve developed a welcoming place to work for people of all backgrounds, serve their customers with pride and dedication, and have led on technology investment since day one,” said Nebraska Chamber Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President Mike Johnson in a statement. TMCO was honored at the Nebraska Chamber Manufacturing Summit in October. Established in 1974, the company specializes in custom metal fabrication.

of Gretna and Gretna Public Schools. Innovative public-private partnerships, like this one, maximize community resources, expertise, and collective impact,” Deterding said. The Gretna Crossing YMCA will also have cardio and weight equipment, an indoor walking track, a sauna and steam room, a gymnasium, and classrooms for group fitness classes. With a longstanding reputation for being a community partner, United Republic Bank was tapped as the title sponsor for the community park. “We have plans to open a branch in the area, so as we began to look at how we could be a part of the community, how we could invest in it, this project was something we wanted to be part of,” said Chris Wiedenfeld, president and CEO of United Republic Bank. “Having our name next to the city of Gretna’s on this great project will help build our brand and, hopefully, show our commitment to the Gretna community.”

LNK SET FOR DEVELOPMENT In a bid to draw more traffic through Lincoln, the Lincoln Airport Authority (LNK) announced two major developments this year. The first, announced in January, was a $65 million long-term lease agreement between LNK and Burrell Aviation. Burrell Aviation will help develop the site’s facilities and secure anchor tenants for the airport. It’s estimated that the project will create between 180 to 350 permanent jobs for Lincoln and the surrounding areas. A major component will be the development of cargo facilities. As a former Air Force base and a backup base for Offutt Air Force Base, the airport has one of the longest runways at 13,000 feet. Over 200,000 square feet of cargo facilities are being planned. In addition to Burrell Aviation’s commitment, Nebraska-based trailer manufacturer Timpte, Inc. signed a long-term lease in February. Timpte, founded in 1884 and headquartered in David City, Nebraska, plans to build a manufacturing center on a parcel of land to the west of LNK known as the LNK Enterprise Park. The manufacturing center will be between 180,000 and 200,000 square feet and will employ 80 from the local community. “This new facility will allow us to bring further diversification to our product portfolio and create a variety of well-paid, skilled job opportunities,” said Dale Jones, president and CEO, in a press release.

2023 Year in Review! BEST ICE CREAM SHOP IN THE NATION Who would have thought that a small ice cream shop focused on locally sourced ingredients in Omaha, Nebraska would top the nationwide charts? This year Coneflower Creamery did just that. Named the No. 1 Ice Cream Shop in the U.S. by Yelp and No. 5 on the Best Indie Ice Cream Shops Across the U.S. by USA Today. Both Yelp and USA Today listened to their users and readers, respectively, to rank shops across the nation. No other shops in Nebraska were selected for either honor, with the nearest shops listed in Missouri

and Wisconsin for USA Today’s 10 Best. Founded in 2016 by pastry chef Brian Langbehn and co-owned by Katie Arant, the shop focuses on farm-to-cone sourcing. Local purveyors include Archetype Coffee (Omaha), Bloomsorganic and Honey Creek Creamery (Honey Creek, Iowa), Kimmel Orchard (Nebraska City), and others. Coneflower Creamery opened a second location in Millwork Commons in April 2023. Its original location in the Blackstone District remains open.

GOOGLE ANNOUNCES MILLIONS IN INVESTMENTS Google continues to invest in the Nebraska and Iowa multiple announcements. In August the company announced plans to develop a data center in Lincoln. The data center, which will be on 589 acres on the northeast side, will be a $600 million investment in the community and bring 30 full-time jobs. It will be the company’s third data center in the state. A press release from Google cited rising demand for AI and Google Cloud, Workspace, Search and Maps. The company is also expanding the Papillion and Council Bluff’s facilities. The two expansions will cost roughly $950 million. “Google’s commitment to Nebraska has gone beyond the physical, technical infrastructure,” said Nebraska State Senator Deb Fischer in the press release about the expansion. “It is also active in community engagement and supports expanding digital services across the state.” For example, Google announced $150,000 as part of its annual Data Center community grants program to support seven local nonprofit organizations that are promoting STEM education, sustainability, and startups and small businesses. Organizations receiving grants included: the Latino Center of the Midlands, Whispering Roots, Bellevue Public Library, Springfield Platteview Education Foundation, Kids Can Community Center, Papillon Community Foundation and Bellevue University.
