With another program year completed, the Leadership Hancock County Board of directors will turn toward the coming year, which begins in September.

The board's Curriculum Committee has been meeting to discuss possible changes to the program. One goal is to introduce more study of leadership concepts and traits. Look for those changes to be in place by the time the Team-Building Retreat begins in September.

One major change that's already in place: A new, tech-heavy Scavenger Hunt for the retreat. As part of a community project undertaken by 2018 class members Jason Wells, George Plisinski, Stacey Wixson and Diane Petry, members of the 2018-19 class will use an app called "GooseChase" as part of the longtime team-building exercise.

The LHC board also will install new officers soon and will be writing a budget for the 2018-19 academic year.

Founded in 1996, Leadership Hancock County was conceived as a pipeline of sorts for emerging leaders. Since then, more than 400 people have gone through our program. On that roster of graduates are CEOs, political leaders, educators and key managers in dozens of organizations.
Our program works to foster leadership skills in promising students in an immersive, eight-month study of our communities and the qualities that go into making strong leaders. Along the way, enrollees learn how to work as part of a team, and they gain valuable insights into how to communicate effectively and contribute to their organizations in impactful ways.
If you or someone in your organization is on a leadership track in your organization, we'd love to hear from you.
