Buckhead Coalition looking to build new crop of leaders with 25 anniversary programming
As part of their silver anniversary, the Buckhead Coalition is accepting applications for the “Diplomatic Leadership Corps,” which will consist of 25 participates between the ages of 25-30, who live within Buckhead’s 28-square-mile boundary.
Those invited to participate in the program will receive a one-day introduction to civic service by the Buckhead Business Association, Fulton League of Women Voters, Georgia Center for Nonprofits, Georgia Municipal Association, and Time To Get Organized on subjects like volunteerism, fundraising, government and politics.
They will also take a four-day course in Adaptive Business Leadership at Georgia State University’s J. Mack Robinson College of Business. The one-week program is scheduled to run June 10 - 14.
If interested in applying, call 404-233-2228.
