Yes, the D.C. Chamber of Commerce CEO does have a Twitter handle at least.?But there's nary a tweet underneath it. Lang's team says she either tweets?or oversees the Twitter conversation from the chamber's handle, @dcchamber,?and that she's plenty involved. But we can't help it ? we'd like to see more?of her firepower under her own name. Her feed on D.C.'s new living wage bill?alone would be worth reading.
Barbara's take: "My focus is on the values and priorities of the Chamber. In my role as President and CEO, I of course use social media to keep Chamber members and followers abreast of what we're doing to further those goals on their behalf. That is where my interests lie and so that's how I use social media."

Even as the rest of the working world seems to jump onto Twitter like it's a bouncy castle at a 4-year-old's birthday party, there are some CEOs who have chosen to stick to the sidelines for now. And their relative silence in the Twitterverse may surprise you given their high profile in the local business community.
During our search for this package, these were business leaders we expected to find right away with voluminous feeds and provocative commentary. But we can tell you this: If and when they decide to become more personally active on Twitter, they're definitely folks you will want to follow. Check them out to the right.
