Opportunity for Growth

The LWC model focuses on transformational leadership, which creates valuable and positive change in individuals, both personally and professionally. We focus on Leading Self, Leading others and Leading the Community.

Monthly, day long sessions are typically held the 3rd Tuesday of the month, from September through May. From the kick-off reception to the graduation ceremony, participants interact and build teamwork skills with classmates from various organizations and backgrounds. 

Participants also receive a 2-hour session StrengthsFinders training that will aid each participant in their own personal growth as leader.
