Leadership Hancock County

Leadership 2024

Leadership Hancock County is an annual program of the Chamber, introduced in 1996 to identify and prepare the community’s existing and future leadership resources. Our mission is to support current and emerging leaders by helping them develop skills, creating community awareness and building understanding of the impact of global events.

Each participant becomes part of a growing network of leaders who have the motivation, sense of commitment and opportunity to become change agents for the good of Hancock County.

Participants must be residents of Hancock County or employed in Hancock County. Applications for Leadership Hancock County are accepted annually between June 1st and July 31st. To be considered for selection in the annual program, please contact tish@hancockchamber.org.

The goal of the selection committee is to choose applicants with leadership potential who represent a broad cross-section of Hancock County, and who have time to commit to the program and future community service. The annual fee to participate is $595 per person. Scholarships may be available.
