Elevate your effectiveness as a community leader

Apply for Leadership Santa Rosa Class 38!

Leadership Santa Rosa (LSR) is the Metro Chamber's premier leadership development program. Many call it “a master's degree in Sonoma County.” Its purpose is to identify, develop, and equip effective community leaders who will help create and support a spirit of cooperation for the resolution of future community challenges.

The program is designed to meet these challenges by providing a series of ten full-day sessions and three half-day leadership training sessions where you’ll gain an in-depth view of business and community issues, development to assume leadership roles, and exposure to community involvement opportunities.

The application period for the next class -- LSR Class 38 -- will open soon, and members are encouraged to apply!

To help you prepare...

Interested applicants are invited to learn more about this two-year program at the LSR Informational Meeting on Wednesday, September 8, 5:00-7:00pm at the Saturday Afternoon Club.

• The first half-hour will be a presentation that will give you an overview of the LSR program and help you prepare for the application process.
• After the presentation, stay for the LSR Alumni Association Mixer to talk with LSR graduates who will answer your questions and tell you about their experience, connections and leadership skills they gained through the program. Read what alumni say about their LSR experience.

Applications for Leadership Santa Rosa Class 38 are being accepted from September 8-28. Applicants should review the information in the pre-application packet [PDF], which includes a preview of the application questions as well as details on selection criteria, program days calendar and scholarship applications.
