Participants in this year’s class will visit a number of the local human service, public safety and economic development organizations.  As an added value, members will have extensive discussions about their leadership styles and meet with a leadership consultant in identifying their strengths and weaknesses for leadership roles.  In the final weeks, class members will be given a project to work on in small groups.   The project will be designed to incorporate the lessons from the year while enhancing the Oldham County community.

“We’re proud of the Leadership Oldham County Program,” said Deana Epperly Karem, executive director of the Oldham County Chamber of Commerce.  “This year’s program promises to build on the past while creating a vision for Oldham County businesses, and economic and community development.”
