Successful leadership requires crossing diverse boundaries between individuals, groups, and organizations, around issues that live in a community, including those that can potentially divide the community. Successful leaders are those who know their own values, develop their own leadership capacity, as well as the leadership capacity of others.  Learn how to cross boundaries and build bridges as you bring success to reside in your community.  Explore the frontiers of leading local government to meet the challenges that will rise in your community.

Make your plans now to participate in the 16th Annual Leadership Summit at the Resort at the Mountain in Welches, Oregon.  The Leadership Training Institute presents a unique program that is designed to enhance your success and understanding of your leadership role and responsibilities as an elected official.
