Leadership Pasadena seeks future leaders for area

Since 1999, Leadership Pasadena (LP) has helped accomplished and emerging leaders reach their full leadership potential to lead community organizations or participate in civic life to improve living in the Pasadena area. LP is now recruiting participants for its leadership training program beginning September 2016. Applications are available at www.LeadershipPasadena.org/app.htm. Individuals who live, work or volunteer in the Pasadena area, including Altadena, are eligible to apply. Many participants and several Board members live in Altadena and hope others will also get involved.

The 8-month program provides professionally facilitated, interactive leadership skills training, an in-depth exploration of Pasadena community issues, and the relationship building vital to effective civic engagement and non-profit leadership.

“Leadership Pasadena transforms emerging business and community leaders of all ages into inspired, empowered and connected advocates ready to make Pasadena an exceptional place to live and work. LP makes current leaders even better so they can be more effective and innovative Board members, employees and volunteers and future civic or elected officials. We “leverage leadership” and, through the charities and civic organizations helped by our graduates, we impact the lives of thousands of Pasadena area residents, non-profits and businesses,” according to LP Board Chair Martha Shenkenberg.
