If you’re a business executive or nonprofit leader in the Dallas Region striving to leverage your skills for meaningful community impact, then Leadership Dallas (LD) is the ideal opportunity for you.
Founded 51 years ago by the Dallas Regional Chamber, LD has supported many of the region’s prominent leaders, all of whom share a common passion: creating lasting change and improving the quality of life in the Dallas Region. Now, we’re seeking the next group of senior leaders to join the Class of 2027 and elevate their leadership.
Here are three reasons to apply today:
1. Make a profound impact on the Dallas community
Since the program’s establishment in 1975, LD has maintained its focus on engaging with the Dallas community through a broad range of service projects and initiatives. Through their class days, participants learn about the region and how they can support the people within it. The cohort also works closely with a local organization to address key community needs through their year-long class project.
2. Enhance your leadership skills
Class members receive access to executive coaching to strengthen self-awareness, sharpen decision-making and lead with confidence. In addition, they collaborate with dynamic leaders, learning to tackle complex challenges with empathy, influence and purpose.
3. Build lasting connections with other Dallas Region leaders
Each cohort consists of 55 leaders from a wide variety of industries, backgrounds and experiences, all committed to driving change in their organizations and the community. The relationships formed during class days and service opportunities transcend beyond time spent in the program, both professionally and personally.
