Leadership Waco
Solutions to community needs demand the active participation of informed citizens. Leadership Waco is designed to educate, empower and engage current and emerging leaders in Greater Waco to be part of the solution.
About the Program
Leadership Waco offers a select group of 40 participants a chance to delve into more than leadership skills. Over ten months, individuals are introduced to many different industries throughout Greater Waco, such as aviation, tourism, education, healthcare, manufacturing and industrial businesses, agriculture, the local government and judicial system, and the many non-profit organizations that are necessary to serve Waco families to achieve a better way of life. There are so many moving parts that keep our city’s progress moving forward. Waco is a vital community in Texas because leaders in these various areas work together.
Participants are grateful for the opportunity to be involved with the Chamber’s Leadership Waco program, many Alumni remain friends and continue to experience the benefits gained through their involvement in Leadership Waco.
