Gearing up for Leadership Sacramento kicking off Friday & Saturday with a retreat in Napa. Here's a little more about it...
ABOUT LEADERSHIP SACRAMENTO
Leadership Sacramento, founded in 1985, is a program of the Sacramento Metro Chamber, which develops community-minded business and civic leadership. It is a year-long interactive program, limited to 35 participants each year, that provides a behind-the-scenes understanding of the issues that impact the region's economic prosperity, quality of life and culminates in the completion of a community betterment project. Next year marks a milestone in the history of the Leadership Sacramento program - the class of 2011 will be its 25th graduating class.
The Leadership Sacramento program is designed to accomplish four distinct goals:
EXPOSE PARTICIPANTS to the processes, programs, opportunities and challenges that impact Sacramento 's six-county region.
STIMULATE INTEREST in community activities and encourage engagement in local and regional affairs.
CREATE A NETWORK of community-minded leaders who will lead in a spirit of collaboration that fosters regional prosperity.
PROVIDE PARTICIPANTS with a behind-the-scenes view of regional issues and give them access to the top business, civic and community leaders who play integral roles in the Sacramento region.
Individuals are considered and selected for the Leadership Sacramento program through an open application process. Applications for the Leadership Sacramento program are open to the public each fall, with the participants for each upcoming class selected before the close of each calendar year.
