Strong curriculum and local focus provide Leadership A2Y participants an appreciation of the complex issues facing our region and the skills to address those concerns. Not only will your commitment allow you close interaction with this diverse population, but also you will have access to the eyes and ears of influential local experts while investigating a broad range of topics.

Combining your improved leadership skills with your new associations will allow you to better represent your business, responsibly serve a deserving nonprofit organization and be an energetic steward of your community.

“The leadership program is an excellent opportunity for any current or emerging leader to expand their professional network and create new partnerships,” said former Leadership Ann Arbor Co-Chair and Ann Arbor Deputy Chief of Police Greg Bazick. “The program gives participants greater insight and appreciation for the rich and diverse services that interconnect to make Ann Arbor a cultural and educational mecca of the Midwest.”

Are you a leadership candidate? Leadership A2Y is open to individuals who work or reside in the greater Ann Arbor / Ypsilanti region. Current and emerging leaders within organizations and individuals interested in serving the community in a leadership role are encouraged to apply.

Applications, program information, costs and a class schedule are available on the Chamber website or by contacting Lindsay McCarthy, director of the Chamber Foundation & Member Programs, at 734-214-0109.
