The application deadline to participate in the Wyoming L.E.A.D. (Leadership, Education and Development) program is rapidly approaching and agriculture producers and agribusiness men and women are encouraged to apply.
The program will accept applications for L.E.A.D. Class 13 until Aug. 31.
The L.E.A.D. program, a 14-month adult leadership initiative, was designed to create an outstanding, highly motivated group of agricultural leaders in Wyoming. Up to 18 fellows will be selected to participate in the program which begins in November. The program includes eight in-state seminars, a national study seminar in Washington, D.C., and an international trade mission. Participants will devote approximately 40 days to the study seminars and special project assignments.
The educational seminars are presented by qualified professionals and industry experts and cover topics including communication, policy and decision making, entrepreneurship, marketing, international trade, government and political affairs, resource management, and economic development.
L.E.A.D. fellows pay a tuition fee to participate in the program and are chosen based on their leadership potential, communication skills, commitment to participate, and other criteria.
A total of 203 fellows have graduated from the L.E.A.D. program since its inception in 1984 by a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to establish a rural leadership program. The program is a partnership of the Wyoming Business Council and the Wyoming Agricultural Leadership Council.
For fellowship application forms and other information about the program, contact Garretson-Weibel at cindy.weibel@wyo.gov or 307.777.6589.
