"Heading into Leadership Springfield I didn’t quite know what to expect. But the last nine months have been among the best of my career. I am sure previous classes have been good, but I can’t believe any class has been more diverse, creative and representative of the talent and leadership that Springfield has in its workforce. I feel the contacts I have made will benefit my employer, my community and me."

-Randy Stewart, supervisor of financial information systems, Associated Electric Cooperative Inc., Class XIX

Leadership Springfield offers sponsorship opportunities

Leadership Springfield has produced almost 600 graduates during its first 20 years of existence in this community. The graduates of this nine-month program are committed to Leadership Springfield's mission and are actively involved in the community. In fact, it would be a challenge to find any business, government, civic or nonprofit organization in Springfield that does not have at least one Leadership Springfield graduate in a leadership role. In addition, Leadership Springfield Academy provides an opportunity for high school students to interact with community leaders, learn about current community issues, and develop the personal skills needed by our future leaders.

If you believe in building leaders for our community, then consider sponsoring a program day, a two-day fall or spring retreat, or participate in the Leadership golf tournament.
