Moderator Jocelyn Dorsey leads a panel discussion featuring honest, positive, respectful, open-minded and productive dialogue about current events, inequality and racism, and how to work together to achieve a more harmonic community. The panel includes the newly-elected chairperson of the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners Nicole Love Hendrickson; Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce President & CEO Nick Masino; Waffle House executive Njeri Boss; and longtime law enforcement official John Pearson.

Nicole Love Hendrickson/Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners

Nicole Love Hendrickson is a mom, social worker, and community advocate. She is no stranger to the Gwinnett Community. She has dedicated nearly 15 years to serving the citizens of Gwinnett County in many different capacities and has led efforts to ensure that a diversity of voices were reflected in decision-making at all levels.

She co-led the strategic grassroots and community planning efforts during her 8-year tenure with the Gwinnett Coalition for Health & Human Services. She inspired civic involvement through the Gwinnett Neighborhood Leadership Institute which boasts more than 600 alumni who are ingrained in Gwinnett’s civic infrastructure. She pioneered strategies to enhance small business development through the Gwinnett Unity Group, serving on the front line to establish the county’s first homeless shelter – the Norcross Assessment Center on Jimmy Carter Blvd.

Nicole is a bridge builder and the “go to” person for all things Gwinnett. With a global community represented by more than 100 countries around the world, she has revolutionized the way in which Gwinnett County and other local governments interact with its residents. She led the charge to build a government that is equitable, inclusive and people-focused. She believes that this is an essential element to good governance.

As the newly-elected Chairman of the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, she believes in the Gwinnett of the future – where government looks like and understands the needs of ALL its residents; a place where people flock to because of diversity and forward-thinking government; and a place where all residents can work and succeed without fear. Nicole believes that she can best represent the voice, values, and needs of the next generation. She is committed to working together to improve the lives of all Gwinnett residents and businesses to ensure a healthy community and a prosperous economy.

Nick Masino/Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce

Nick Masino heads the Gwinnett Chamber, one of the largest suburban Chambers of Commerce in the nation, after serving as the Chief Economic Development Officer for the Gwinnett Chamber & Partnership Gwinnett for over a decade. Masino joined the Gwinnett Chamber in 2007 and has served in the key economic development leadership role for the past 12 years. He oversaw the business recruitment and retention efforts for Gwinnett, as well as the implementation of the Partnership
Gwinnett Strategy. To create this community-focused economic development (ED)
organization, Masino worked with public and private leadership to commission ED studies
in 2011 and 2016; and spearheaded the implementation efforts of the initial plan in 2007 –
which has since brought approximately 250 company expansions or relocations, more than
23,000 new jobs, and more than $1.7 billion in investment to Gwinnett.

Masino’s economic development career began in February 2007, when he accepted his current role, but he was no stranger to the field. In December 2007, he ended his second term as mayor of the City of Suwanee having been one of the youngest mayors in Georgia’s history. During his tenure as mayor, the city of Suwanee embarked on a comprehensive economic and community development project highlighted by the construction of a 24,000 square foot City Hall and the popular 65-acre Suwanee Town Center, which led Suwanee to be named a CNN-Money magazine’s Top 10 Town in America. Prior to his position with the Gwinnett Chamber, Masino spent 12 years in the recruiting and staffing industry.
