2024 - 2025 Leadership Lewisville Application
The Leadership Lewisville program, a leadership development program of the Lewisville Area Chamber of Commerce, educates, inspires and provides opportunities to develop and polish your leadership skills. The nine-month intensive program features substantial community leaders to facilitate, provide information and stimulate discussion on how to strengthen and incorporate leadership each day. Participation in the leadership program requires commitment to attend each class date. Please note, most classes are the first Thursday of the month from 8a-4p but we have a couple of classes that are subject to change due to scheduling.
We also have a 1 day-trip to Austin to cover State Government sometime in Spring. This will be in addition to our monthly classes.
Topics covered throughout the course are also listed, but not confirmed for a specific date.
Attendance Requirement:
•Each participant is expected to attend every session in its entirety.
•We realize that unforeseen circumstances might arise. The participant may not miss any portion of a mandatory class and/or no more than twelve (12) hours of a regular class. It is up to the discretion of the President, Chairman of the Board, and Committee Chairman whether a participant missing a mandatory class and/or more than the allowed twelve (12) hours will be considered a graduate. In the case that a participant does not complete the program as a graduate, a certificate of participation will be issued in lieu of a graduation certificate at the graduation ceremony luncheon.
•Arriving 15 minutes late or leaving 15 minutes early constitutes missing one (1) full hour. Attendance will be recorded.
