YPN Members must act quickly to secure the scholarship, that will reduce the price by 25% - to just $495 for the intensive six month program.

The Chamber’s 2011 Leadership Institute will begin later this month with a kickoff goal-setting program on Thursday, January 27. The six month, interactive program will continue until June 7, when the students are recognized at the Leadership Institute graduation ceremony. There is still time to register yourself, your co-workers or employees for this recognized leadership development program.

This year’s participants will have the opportunity to hear from many of the area’s top business leaders, as they share their insights on the topics of strategic thinking, teamwork, business acumen, stress tolerance and more.
