The Plano Chamber of Commerce and Leadership Plano are pleased to announce that applications for Leadership Plano’s Class 39 are now being accepted. Leadership Plano is seeking individuals who are committed to community service and are interested in strengthening their leadership skills and knowledge of the community.
Spanning nine months from September through May, the Leadership Plano program includes an opening retreat beginning Saturday, September 10, that focuses on team-building and identifying individual leadership styles and techniques. From October through May, the class members gather monthly to examine specific aspects of the community such as education, government, local business and economic development, health and human services, the criminal justice system, the arts, and more.
“Leadership Plano has made a tremendously positive impact on the Plano community and beyond,” Program Director Carole Greisdorf said. “Its graduates serve in numerous elected positions and on non-profit boards through the community and Texas. This program provides a solid foundation for service.”
Participants gain a broad perspective of all aspects of the Plano community, equipping them to become well-rounded leaders ready to apply their skills in a variety of ways. Leadership Plano provides a foundation for long-term involvement in Plano and helps launch a supportive community network of colleagues and friends.
