Testimonials

  • LA was one of the greatest things in my development as a leader and a new person in the Community. It challenged me about what I had assumed about myself and why I needed the others that were in this class with me! The number of times I have called on my classmates since my May graduation is too many to recall. EVERY one in that room I now consider leaders that will attack the issues that must be addressed!

  • Leadership Albany is among the most comprehensive community leadership training programs available from anywhere I have worked and lived. The curriculum provides a thorough education about community government, industry, services, business, and education. Program class members are a foundation of professional networking that fosters relationships throughout the community."

    • R.D. Harter, Director of Public Information
    • Dougherty County School System and LA '09

  • "Leadership Albany empowers relationships, networking and learning beyond the "typical" leadership courses. I was probably one of the few people that was "familiar" with each of subject days; but there was not one day that I did not walk away with greater understanding. This program provides a pathway to connect deeper in the community and provides fundamental skills that are transferable to any environment or any locale."

Why Sponsor?

100% of the Leadership Albany organization is run off of the generous sponsorships of our local businesses and community donations. Each class program day, transportation, food, class instruction and etc. is made possible by business sponsorships and class members' tuition. In addition, each year we offer tuition scholarships for those incoming class members who need assistance to participate in Leadership Albany.

We work with our corporate sponsors to ensure the training and experiences Leadership Albany are valuable for the class members. This makes the class members, upon graduation from Leadership Albany, more valuable members of their organizations and the community.
