Local Government/ Guest Luncheon
This workshop provides access to our local leaders to learn from them first-hand about the challenges and rewards from public service in leadership roles. A panel of current city council members from our local cities is featured.
Potential class members for the upcoming year and interested parties are also invited to this workshop to catch a glimpse of the Leadership Tomorrow program. Featuring a luncheon panel of local government officials, potential class members can meet current class members and find out if the Leadership Tomorrow program is right for them.
