Appling County's Leadership Program, Appling Leads
What is Leadership?
It is an age old question and is often hard to define. Is leadership being an elected official? a business owner? the president of a civic group? the decision-maker in a family? You guessed right! All of the above. Being a community leader is about knowing what is going on in your community and also being a part of the movement forward.
Great leaders operate at a high level of community awareness. They know what their community assets are, what challenges they face and are willing to be involved with solutions. Great leaders also have a set of skills, some that are learned over a long history of experience and some that are taught. That is where Appling Leads comes in. This leadership class provides community members an opportunity to be part of something greater than just themselves. They will learn the ins and outs of our community, see some of our great assets and discuss ways to overcome our challenges.
We are looking for YOU! Join the movement and apply for the only adult leadership class for Appling County. We are looking for people of all ages, ethnicities, educational backgrounds and experience to join together for the betterment of our community.
Join the Movement.... Be a Leader
Appling Leads is a leadership-training program for business, civic and community leaders with the desire and potential to work together for a better Appling County and a more competitive Georgia. Its primary purpose is to identify, train, and inspire a network of emerging leaders, across all ages, races, business sectors and backgrounds. Through an engaging education process, this 9 month program will empower local citizens to get involved in the future of our community. You, as a business owner, are positioned perfectly to be a pivotal player in the development of leaders for the future.
