• LNF is a nine-month leadership development program.
• Our mission is to identify and develop leaders by promoting community awareness, instilling civic responsibility, and building relationships.
• We use a variety of techniques including workshops by trained facilitators, panel discussions, study teams, and site visits.
• LNF was developed as a program of The Greater North Fulton Chamber of Commerce.
• The thrust of the program is two-fold.

• First, we focus on leadership development itself. Participants are exposed to a training curriculum that has been designed to enhance leadership skills in the areas of organizational and group dynamics, conflict mediation, communication, diversity and change management.
• Second, we highlight opportunities for participation in the North Fulton area by visiting government agencies, economic development centers, judicial and detention facilities, non-profit agencies, educational institutions, and health care centers.

• Participants attend monthly class days, generally the third Thursday of each month.

• Working as a team, class participants are responsible for planning and executing a group service project that benefits the community.
