LEADERSHIP WARREN goals are to:

• Identify existing and potential community leaders, and focus them on the issues that face Warren County and its position in the region and the state.
• Instill in these leaders an understanding of trusteeship – a sense of personal responsibility for the well being of their communities.
• Encourage leadership skills development and interactive, creative problem solving.
• Promote relationship building to help your business prosper through valuable networking.

Participation in LEADERSHIP WARREN is open to members of the business community, living and/or working in the Warren County Region. A maximum of 15 individuals will be appointed to participate in the program. Since the number of appointments to LEADERSHIP WARREN is limited, applicants who are not selected are encouraged to reapply in subsequent years.

Participants will be chosen by the LEADERSHIP WARREN Board of Directors based upon the information completed on the application. The committee will be seeking representation from a cross-section of the community. These leaders will be active in business, education, the arts, religion, government, community based organizations, and ethnic and minority groups and will reflect the diversity of the community.
