We’re excited to announce the members of our second Leadership Leawood class. This talented group of 22 individuals will embark on a journey of leadership growth, community exploration, and relationship building over the next five months, beginning in January.
Leadership Leawood is designed to provide participants with an in-depth look at the public, private, and nonprofit sectors within our region while offering professional development and leadership training. By the end of the program, class members will have honed their leadership skills, expanded their networks, and gained valuable insights into the Leawood and Greater Kansas City community.
