Selection
Selection is based on leadership achievements and potential to contribute to the development of a region. At least one participant will be selected from each of the ten counties involved, and diversity of each class is important. Participants will be chosen from all occupations and levels of community and regional involvement. Leadership Middle Tennessee does not select on the basis of age, sex, race or religion.
Costs
If accepted for the program, the tuition fee of $600 is due prior to the beginning of the first session. The fee includes meals, breaks, materials, and miscellaneous expenses for each session. Since sessions are held in a different county each month, participants are expected to stay with the group and are responsible for lodging and transportation. Most of the expenses are underwritten by local and corporate sponsors.
Benefits
Leadership Middle Tennessee benefits the people of Middle Tennessee first and foremost as a result of the knowledge, commitment, excitement, and enthusiasm graduates have for helping the region to recognize the changing dynamics of 21st century growth. Graduates will come to view the ten-county area with a regional perspective on current and future challenges. |
