What is Leadership Grand Traverse (LGT)?
Leadership Grand Traverse (LGT) is a community-based program that prepares participants for decision-making leadership roles in areas such as policy, program implementation, and development. The program provides unique access and exposure to many of the major assets and leaders across our region, including natural resources, parks and recreation, community and economic development, health and human services, transportation, and agriculture.
Offered once each year, LGT invites participants to connect with our community and each other. Alumni of this over thirty-year-long program are evident throughout all sectors of the Grand Traverse region. Interested participants should come prepared to learn, challenge their assumptions, make new friends, and hopefully see the world through a slightly different lens.
Participants from all sectors and backgrounds are welcome in this program, though it is designed with an eye toward professionals who are looking for growth and are committed to helping build our regional community. This program requires a non-negotiable commitment to participation and engagement in the entire process, to ensure that LGT graduates share a common understanding, polish, and readiness for their future leadership roles.
