LEADERSHIP HANOVER, presented by the Hanover Chamber Foundation, is an interactive learning experience that guides participants through philosophy and skill development. Cohorts include participants from a wide array of industries. Monthly sessions - led by accomplished presenters, panelists and facilitators – will ensure LH graduates demonstrate:
Improved self-awareness capability
Stronger personal leadership competency
Growth as an effective communicator
Increased skill in time management
Growth as a team builder and leader
Ability to empower, coach, and hold others accountable
Improved networking skills
Evolving ability to create a vision and alignment for projects and plans
Additionally, participants will deepen their understanding of key concepts to run an effective business, their ability to develop and implement business processes on a daily and annual basis, and their understanding of the impact both local government and community engagement has on businesses and individuals.
Over the 9-month academy, participants stay engaged by learning in many ways - Small group discussions, top-notch presenters, workshops, class socials, mentorships, expert panels, team-building activities, and more! Class size is limited to ensure the best experience.
Monthly sessions take place on the second Tuesdays from 1-5 PM, October 2023 to April 2024. An orientation dinner will be held in September. Two post-session class socials will be held, one each semester. The group will take a day trip to the VA Capitol during the General Assembly. The final session in May takes place prior to the graduation celebration with dinner.
