Purpose
The single most important ingredient in building a successful, thriving community is an
investment in leadership. This program seeks to develop informed leaders who have learned
about the challenges that face our communities everyday and who then stand in a position to
become involved in the positive growth of their community.
Program
Leadership XII-2008 is an educational program developed by the Port Orange South Daytona
Chamber of Commerce. Bright House Networks and Florida Power & Light, are the sponsors for
2008 that help make the Leadership experience happen. This 12 week course, held on Tuesdays
each week includes field trips, interactive seminars, meeting the people behind the scenes,
experiencing the actual locations and obtaining first hand knowledge of how it all happens.
Meet the leaders and get a view from their perspective.
Participants will develop a strong network of community contacts and build working partnerships
with community and governmental leaders. Each session is designed to strengthen skills in
team building, communication, creative problem solving, adaptability and change management.
Participation
The Leadership program has been designed to offer both a strong community based awareness,
while challenging and motivating participants to develop their leadership skills and hone their
professional development. Within the Leadership Class, participants build a bond with fellow class
members and help each other enhance their community awareness. Attendance and commitment
