Leadership Wooster is a series
of ten day long sessions, each devoted to a key community topic,
plus an orientation and a concluding
Graduation/Retreat.
Each of the ten topical sessions
will consist of an historical overview of the topic, an exploration
of the current status and
an insight into future needs and demands. Resource people
will be those most involved with the topic; and, when possible,
direct
experiences will be provided
Topics will include the local economy, government, people, human
services, the judicial system, education, medical, communications,
community organizations and the future.
Participation in Leadership Wooster is open to anyone in the Wooster
area who aspires to or has talent for leadership positions in the
community, those who want to know more about the community so they
can use that knowledge for some form of community service. It also
provides new members of our community an opportunity to gain first
hand information about their community.
The
class will be limited to 30 people chosen from among all those who
apply. Tuition is covers all costs connected
with the program.
The Leadership Wooster Alumni have started their own organization
and each year their numbers grow. They plan community based
projects that will involve the alumni class and improve Wooster.
