Leadership Raleigh Alumni Advisory Committee
The Leadership Raleigh Alumni Advisory Committee serves as a resource for nonprofit and governmental agencies seeking volunteers or making board/commission appointments. At the heart of the Leadership Raleigh program is helping participants find ways they can make an impact in our community. Graduates of our program have gone on to serve on the Raleigh City Council, Wake County Board of Education, and countless other nonprofit boards and/or commissions.
Graduates of Leadership Raleigh meet regularly to stay connected on current issues and challenges in the area and to network. Networking provides an opportunity to meet leaders from business, government, and nonprofits who want to give back to the community.
The Leadership Raleigh Alumni Advisory Committee offers all graduates the opportunity to be active participants in Leadership Raleigh long after they have completed the program.
Participation on a committee or as a board member is welcomed and encouraged. Please consider joining a committee or volunteering on the board by contacting Shana Overdorf.
Leadership Raleigh Mission:
Provide a recognized source of leadership talent for the community and to present opportunities for Raleigh Chamber members to meet and to keep abreast of business and community issues. Over a ten-month period, participants receive an in-depth view of community issues, develop leadership skills necessary to assume leadership roles, and are exposed to community involvement opportunities through a final service project. Leadership Raleigh truly shows participants a “ground up” view of the interworking’s of our community.
This year our 2022-2023 strategic goals and objectives are:
