THOMASVILLE- Imagine Thomasville is proud to announce the 41st class of Leadership Thomas within the Thomasville-Thomas County Chamber of Commerce.
With the support of program alumni and the business community, Leadership Thomas has conducted leadership programs since 1981 and was the second Chamber Initiative Leadership Program in the State of Georgia thanks to Lloyd Eckberg. This esteemed program continues to develop a diverse group of community leaders dedicated to excellence and service in the Thomasville-Thomas County community.
LT Class 41 will kick-off its year-long program with a retreat in Callaway Gardens in August, followed by nine monthly sessions and a closing with graduation for those who complete the program in June of 2025.
The sessions present activities and hands-on experiences related to leadership topics including economic development, government, the arts, healthcare, human services, law enforcement and the environment. Each program day will also include leadership training through curriculum provided by The J.W. Fanning Institute for Leadership Development. Throughout this program, the group will be tasked with a project to identify a problem in the community, and work on a way to bring light to that issue.
