Elmore County Leadership Program
Seeks Applicants |
Leadership Elmore County is looking for a few good
applicants to complete their nine month program,
starting in September. Basic membership qualifications
include being at least 21years of age, and either living
or working in Elmore County. Leadership Elmore County is
open to adults with leadership experience and a desire
to enhance leadership capacity, work with others and get
involved.
Leadership Elmore County is based on the idea of
bringing together individuals, who represent the
diversity of the population of the county and who share
concerns for improving the quality of life in Elmore
County. These individuals have already shown a
willingness and ability to assume leadership
responsibilities in their communities.
As a part of the program the individuals will receive
information and updates on issues and challenges facing
our communities in different areas. We encourage
networking, action oriented focus groups, and placement
in positions of community involvement. We, also, network
with other area Leadership programs.
During the year, participants attend day-long sessions
based on one area of interest. The emphasis is not on
“who” is a leader but on the process of working
together. The program is directed by past participants
and other community leaders. Tuition is $300.
Willingness to become involved in Leadership Elmore
County is a commitment to make a difference in the
future of our area.
To be considered for the 2009 Class, go to
www.leadershipelmorecounty.com and click on the
“Apply” section. Print out an application, fill it out
and return by July 1st or call Marilee Tankersley,
Executive Director, at 567-4637 for more information.
The class will be selected by early August.

leadership style by way of the DISC program.
