Leadership Midland Overview
| Community
leaders effective ones do not just
suddenly appear to take up the challenge and step
into cadence. They must first understand the complexity
of their city. The basis of Leadership Midland
is to provide future leaders with a learning experience
in the atmosphere of the city itself. In this
living laboratory, Leadership Midland brings together
people from all areas of the city's life for sharing,
learning and participating. |
