"Personally I feel I have benefited in many ways. The relationships I have built are more than just business relationships they are personal friendships. I feel privileged to be part of such a dynamic group of present and future leaders of Springfield. You look around the media and you see members of our class communicating vital information to the citizens of Springfield. These people are already trusted community leaders as well as experts in their own fields. I feel more strongly committed to improving the quality of life we have in Springfield than I ever have. I also feel more encouraged and assured that we live in one of the best places in the entire country."
-Jeff Chronister, account executive, Ollis & Company, Class XVIII

Leadership Springfield offers sponsorship opportunities
Leadership Springfield has produced almost 600 graduates during its first 20 years of existence in this community. The graduates of this nine-month program are committed to Leadership Springfield's mission and are actively involved in the community. In fact, it would be a challenge to find any business, government, civic or nonprofit organization in Springfield that does not have at least one Leadership Springfield graduate in a leadership role. In addition, Leadership Springfield Academy provides an opportunity for high school students to interact with community leaders, learn about current community issues, and develop the personal skills needed by our future leaders.
If you believe in building leaders for our community, then consider sponsoring a program day, a two-day fall or spring retreat, or participate in the Leadership golf tournament.
