The remaining three receptions will be held March 14 in Eastern Henrico, March 26 in Innsbrook, and April 11 in Downtown Richmond. These receptions will give candidates the opportunity to meet LMR staff and alumni, while learning more about the organization.
Leadership Quest connects a diverse group of leaders each year, increasing their knowledge and perspectives on regional issues while inspiring them to embrace inclusion, collaboration and servant leadership. The 10-month program provides participants with tools essential for community leadership and with opportunities to interact and dialogue with experts and decision makers who shape issues critical to the region.
The Leadership Quest experience includes an orientation and three-day weekend retreat in early September. From October through June, the class meets for a full day seminar on the first Wednesday of each month, with the exception of January when the class will participate in a two-day mid-year retreat.
