The Jackson Chamber is pleased to announce the nominees selected for its 2018 Leadership Jackson class.
Leadership Jackson is a leadership development program for community members who demonstrate leadership potential.
Sponsored by the Jackson Chamber, the program is an opportunity for local professionals to learn more about the community and the challenges it faces.
Class members will meet weekly for sessions on various topics. A leadership skill-building component is incorporated into each session. Leaders in key areas, such as health care, criminal justice, economic development, quality of life, education and government will share an overview of the present state, challenges, and future vision.
The class will participate in a full day information session in early September to get acquainted and find out more about what their Leadership Jackson experience will entail.
Guiding the group will be Leadership Jackson 2018 Chair Pierre DuVentre, owner, D’Top Roofing and Repair; and the program’s Vice Chair Lauren Saliba, branch manager, Apria Healthcare.
In two weeks, Leadership Jackson class members will go on a two-day opening retreat.
