What have graduates said about their experience?
“Without a doubt, Leadership Winter Park is one of the most rewarding and well-organized leadership development programs I have experienced. If you are interested in opportunities to make meaningful connections with esteemed thought leaders, receive a VIP backstage tour of Winter Park, engage in dialogue about the current needs and challenges within our community and come back an inspired leader, then look no further."

“Through Leadership Winter Park, I am more attuned to my leadership assets and more knowledgeable and thoughtful about how to engage in our community. LWP's curriculum underscored the value of taking time to connect, setting goals and a personal mission statement, and how to implement a plan. LWP helped to fine tune my own personal compass.”

“I would encourage anyone interested in learning more about our community to apply. Participation in the class introduced me to decision makers in the fields of local government, education, healthcare and not for profits. The social aspect of the class introduced me to other business leaders in Winter Park. It has been rewarding to watch as my classmates’ careers have flourished over the last 10 years.”
