Testimonials
"The Leadership Atlanta program was truly an enriching experience. The program days, study group sessions, and immersive experiences helped deepen my understanding of the social and economic issues the city faces. The program brought together 80+ community and business leaders who committed their time, shared their experiences and perspectives, and who continuously demonstrated their genuine interest in working together to keep Atlanta moving forward. The Leadership Atlanta program provided an opportunity to have the difficult, but necessary conversations in spaces that encouraged vulnerability, constructive dialogue, and challenging of the status quo. Upon reflection of my Leadership Atlanta experience, I cherish the friendships that were formed, appreciate the structure that put me outside of my comfort zone, and value the perspective I’ve gained from my classmates."
