The mission of Leadership Greater Syracuse (LGS) is to inspire current and future leaders to make a difference in the community where we live and work.LGS offers three programs. Our flagship program is a one-year, tuition based civic engagement program that informs and enriches participants — whom upon graduation – take a more active and higher level role in the community and in the work place.Civic Engagement:The common thread of LGS graduates is their passion for Central New York. With their training from LGS, graduates are making a significant impact in the community. Many serve on non-profit boards, school boards and hold elected offices such as county clerk, village mayor and family court judge. They are volunteering at higher level of servant leadership. LGS graduates represent their employers in the community and as such, their organization enjoys an enhanced reputation by being viewed as an exemplary corporate citizen. Further, individuals who make a commitment to being involved and engaged in their community beyond work and home are more easily retained by their employers. Leadership Greater Syracuse helps to keep top talent in the region!Business Development:One of the greatest benefits of LGS is the opportunity to be connected to a cross section of key decision makers in CNY including the LGS graduate population of nearly 1,200. No other opportunity exists in CNY to create such broad and diverse cross section of relationships.Personal Development:The life-long skills acquired through LGS include significant personal and professional growth including the enhancement and development of personal leadership style. Just as important, Leadership Greater Syracuse teaches how to recognize and work with people with differing leadership styles. These skills have propelled our graduates into key decision-making roles in the community and in their workplace.
