Congratulations to the Leadership Northeast Class of 2012! They will be celebrating their graduation from the program on May 17th at 11:30 a.m. in the Overland Park Marriott.
The NEJC Chamber’s Leadership Northeast program has a solid history. The first Leadership Northeast class graduated from the program in 1989 and since then the Chamber has helped many community leaders strengthen their skills.
Each of the program’s nine sessions focuses on an area of leadership development. Crucial skills are fostered through various speakers, hands-on experiences, area involvement, meetings with key leaders in the NEJC community, and through working with fellow class members to identify potential solutions.
Each of the sessions are planned not only by Chamber staff, but a dedicated committee who helps us execute the program. A special thank you to the committee for your time, hard work and great ideas!
The following individuals participated on the 2012 LNE committee:
Maddie Breitmayer, Mainstreet Credit Union
Justin Pregont, City of Mission
Mary Vrla-Mohr, Kansas Gas Service
Chris Woody, American Family Insurance
Tim Frenzel, JCCC
Karen Crane, Merriam Visitor’s Bureau
Councilmember Marek Gliniecki, City of Roeland Park
Terry Wintering , SMSD
I encourage you to join us on May 17th for the luncheon and graduation and help the NEJC Chamber celebrate this important accomplishment.
