Thank you for your interest in our Learn to Lead program.

We are pleased to invite individuals to apply for participation in the Learning To Lead class of 2024. This program is uniquely designed for individuals in senior level positions in nonprofit organizations. We will be selecting a diverse group of established and emerging community leaders for the nineteenth (19) class of Learning to Lead. This program delivers an incomparable experience of intellectual, personal, and professional discovery and growth.  The focus will be on providing participants with the tools, insights, and learning environment necessary to maximize their potential as a leader within their organization. This year there will be an emphasis on Equity and Self-Care.

Specifically, participants will learn to:

• Identify the various styles and traits of leaders, while assessing their own styles and traits;
• Share strategies that allow participants to “stretch” beyond their current competencies and allow for the integration of new skills, including Effective Communication Skills; Team Building; Conflict Resolution; Decision making; Facilitation; Presentation Skills; and Positive Psychology in the workplace.
• Explore the role of the nonprofit leader as it relates to the satisfaction of its stakeholders; and
• Foster the development of a group learning process that enables each participant to find their own leadership voice, while establishing a network of colleagues and ongoing peer support to improve leadership skills.
