CATALYST LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
Since 2007, the Catalyst Leadership Program has developed and connected our region’s next generation of diverse leaders. During the 9-month program, participants expand their individual leadership and management skills, create meaningful relationships with emerging leaders across industries, gain insight from the experiences of established community leaders, and work to move the needle on key issues through a collaborative community project.
The goal of the Catalyst Leadership Program is to provide participants a forum to explore their individual leadership goals through a variety of interactive conversations on topics such as:
​
-
Leading Highly Effective Teams
-
Implicit Bias
-
Exploring Your Individual Growth
-
Negotiations and Conflict Management
-
Leading and Serving Your Region
-
Leadership Communications
-
Leading Through Change
