Leadership Saginaw County, a personal and community leadership development program, was formed by the Saginaw County Chamber of Commerce out of a recognized need that Saginaw County must develop and strengthen its own leaders.
The first 21-member class met in September of 1985. Many of the over 900 graduates of Leadership Saginaw County can be found in key positions on boards and committees of community-based organizations, in elected positions in local government and practicing their acquired leadership skills within their own occupations.
The Leadership Saginaw program has been a sound investment that continues to pay excellent dividends. Consider applying for Leadership Saginaw County or encouraging a potential community leader within your organization to participate in the program.
Course Topics (tentative class dates)
Each monthly seminar is designed to create awareness of and stimulate interest in community issues. City and county leaders from both the public and private sectors provide information, insight and analysis of the following specific areas of interest:
