What is Leadership Coweta?  As Coweta's challenges and opportunities become more complex, there is an increasing need to develop strong community leaders.  A program of the Chamber since 1995, Leadership Coweta is a comprehensive leadership program designed to educate and better prepare a diverse group of community, government, business, and nonprofit leaders to work collaboratively in addressing local issues.  The program provides a unique learning experience for emerging and existing leaders through an intensive 6-month program that trains, empowers, and supports leaders so they can effect positive community change. 

Leadership Coweta is open to individuals who are either currently a resident of Coweta County or are employed in Coweta County (employer must be located in Coweta County) for one (1) year prior to September 1 of the current year.

Participants must show a sincere desire, be motivated and interested in the community, and have a strong desire to increase their service in key leadership positions in Coweta County.  Each class member makes a firm commitment to attend the entire program.
