Leadership Martin County, conducted by local and regional professionals, provides a series of topical seminars held from September – May on the first Wednesday of each month. Area leaders volunteer their time to raise awareness to the assets and opportunities of our community by providing an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at eight key elements of our community: education, economic development, government, healthcare, public safety, quality of life, agriculture, and culture & diversity. Peggy Young, Business Consultant with Riverland Community College’s Training and Development Department, will nurture leadership development by leading discussions that integrate community information through dialogue, interactive exercise and small group discussion. This program will provide opportunities for candidates to exchange ideas, build networks and begin the process of identifying and solving important community issues.
