LEADERSHIP BILLINGS:
23 years of helping people become effective leaders.
The Billings Area is a growing, changing community. Keeping our city vibrant and healthy requires insightful leaders who have the ability to communicate and work effectively with a wide variety of groups and individuals. Leadership Billings, a program of the Billings Area Chamber of Commerce, is designed to facilitate the personal development of the leaders of tomorrow. This is done through education, networking, peer interaction, problem solving and project cooperation. Keynote speakers, panel discussions, experiential exercises, and site visits provide an opportunity for participants to explore the city=s history and economy; interact with and learn from business, government, and educational leaders; further develop interpersonal and leadership skills; gain insight into community issues; and learn about volunteer opportunities.
GOALS OF LEADERSHIP BILLINGS

- To create the opportunity for potential leaders to meet and establish a rapport with their peers through meaningful interaction.
- To challenge potential leaders to maximize their contributions to their sponsoring organization by sharing knowledge and initiating projects.
