Chamber
Leadership Program for Professionals
Since its inception in 1976, Leadership Lubbock has continued to provide an outstanding leadership and community orientation program for selected Chamber business leaders. This program provides a source of leaders for the Lubbock Community by ensuring that Leadership Lubbock participants receive necessary community information/orientation and leadership skills. Leadership Lubbock is open to members of the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce, and are selected through an application process.
MISSION: To develop individuals of diverse backgrounds and strengths into a cohesive group of leaders committed to servant leadership and service to the community in order to positively shape the future of Lubbock.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:
- Lubbockâs greatest assets are its community leaders. Realizing the need to develop future civic leaders, the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce founded the Leadership Lubbock Program in 1976. Leadership Lubbock builds a competent leadership pool and develops leadership potential for community activities and engagements.
- Solutions to community needs and problems demand involvement of informed citizens. Leadership Lubbock provides outstanding learning opportunities in an atmosphere that stimulates participants to work together, utilizing both innovative and proven tools to meet challenges.
- Thousands of men and women have participated in Leadership Lubbock, with the majority of those graduates currently living in the Lubbock area. Leadership Lubbock graduates are active in the community and serve on boards of many community service agencies and elected positions.
