Washington County Leadership Development Program Inc

TAKE PRIDE, TAKE PART, TAKE THE LEAD

"I had the pleasure of participating in Leadership class XII and it was a very rewarding experience.  I think it is a great opportunity to network while you learn about all that our county has to offer.  We continue to sponsor employees because we view it as great investment in our leaders and it provides an opportunity for them to continue to hone their leadership skills. The professional relationships established prove beneficial long after the individual class is over. It’s a large return on a small investment."

"Kaplan now boasts six graduates of the LWC program among it’s staff. The benefits not only to the employees but also to the organization are far reaching. Our involvement in LWC has deepened our leadership, increased our community involvement, resulted in employee promotions as well as externship and job placements for our graduates as a result of the connections and relationships fostered by participation in the program."

"Community participation and philanthropy are cornerstones of Citi’s corporate culture.  LWC provides a great opportunity for our leaders to learn about the challenges facing the community and provides a thought provoking environment for them to get involved, broaden their circle of influence, and get passionate about solving those issues. Leadership Washington County alums are not just business leaders, they are also leaders in the community.  That’s a win-win for everyone.”
