About Leadership Livingston: Leadership Livingston is program based on a national model used by Chambers throughout the country to develop individuals as leaders within their communities. The program has a long history of building successful leaders throughout the nation, state and neighboring parishes. Graduates of Leadership Livingston will transfer skills provided through the program into actual community application. Community leadership programs such as this are non-traditional learning experiences that provide a hands-on approach to participants. Presenters and sponsors of the program benefit by helping to form trained, responsible, dedicated leaders who are given the tools and information to make a difference in the community where they live and/or work.
