Leadership Cobb, the Cobb Chamber of Commerce’s leadership development program, is seeking nominations for members of the 2011-2012 class.
Class members will be selected from business, industry, education, government and other professions as well as from volunteer, civic and religious organizations.
Nominees should be able to assume increased community responsibilities, as the program demands significant time and effort for nine consecutive months.
Attendance is mandatory for all regularly scheduled events, which usually are held one day per month plus two-day retreats in the fall and spring and periodic evening sessions. The program begins fall 2011 and runs through spring 2012.
The program, which is in its 28th year, provides a learning environment that enhances personal and professional growth to benefit the community and the region.
The deadline for nominations is Friday, Feb. 18. Fill out a nomination form online at http://www.cobbchamber.org or fax the nominee’s name, title, employer, mailing address, email address and business or mobile telephone number to Leadership Cobb Coordinator Michele Bickerstaff at 770-763-4295.
Judy Skeel of Cobb County Government and Chris Whitmire of the Marietta Fire Department will be co-chairs for the 2011-2012 program year.
