Leadership

Community Vision Graphic
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” – John Quincy Adams


Entrepreneurial community leaders are focused on improving the community’s economic and social well-being. Leaders must be open to new ideas. Each community will approach leadership development differently.

Communities with strong leadership:

  • Cooperate to address issues affecting the community’s economic and social well-being
  • Act collectively to create positive impact
  • Value both youth and adult leadership development
    • Identify and nurture potential leaders
    • Incorporate innovation and entrepreneurial discussion into leadership training
    • Educate leaders on how to build upon strengths and talents in the community
    • Recognize and capitalize the specific skills, positions, and interests of community members
