Register Now for Greater New Haven’s Orientation & Leadership Training Program
The Greater New Haven Chamber of Commerce has opened registration for the Leadership Greater New Haven (LGNH) program for the 2024/2025 session. Starting October 23rd, the 6-session Leadership Program is open for professionals of all levels working in the corporate, nonprofit, and government sectors. The program will allow the leadership class to explore 5 leadership principles as well as an orientation to the Greater New Haven Region.
Class participants will receive training that underscores various leadership styles and strategies for team and staff management, team collaboration, navigating a multi-generational and diverse workforce, strategic planning, emotional intelligence; PLUS the sharpening of professional skills, such as public speaking, personal branding, business communications, and more! In addition, a significant amount of time will be spent on addressing resiliency and leadership strategies during constant change and disruption. One past alumnus commented, “Leadership Greater New Haven gave me an opportunity to work with individuals who shared the same goal of wanting to be a successful leader. This program gave me a greater understanding of how to work with people who come to the table with different intentions but who walk away with the same satisfaction of completion.”
Continuing this year, is a diversity immersion program in which participants connect with community business leaders, learn about community programs, and are given resources, tools, and projects to grow or improve connections within diverse populations and professional organizations or businesses. Additionally, the topics of self-awareness, Conscious and Unconscious Biases, improving team engagement, and strategies for fostering inclusive and equitable cultures internally and externally, will be covered. “The Greater New Haven Leadership Center was an awesome experience for me. I learned so much about the region and the New Haven business community. I also learned quite a bit about myself. It is an extremely beneficial program to both non-profit and business leaders.”
During LGNH sessions, participants will have a unique opportunity to apply their leadership competencies to solve real business issues. Participants are divided into teams and assigned to solve a strategic challenge that will be identified by companies or organizations. The teams will work on their assigned project challenge throughout the leadership program and will prepare a final presentation. Nonprofit organizations or small businesses in the Greater New Haven area that wish to have their strategic challenge evaluated by the leadership class are encouraged to email Tameika G. Miller at tmiller@gnhcc.com.
Prospective class members are urged to enroll as soon as possible at www.gnhcc.com/leadership-training. Additionally, they are invited to attend a free informational session this Thursday, August 22nd at 5 PM, at Amarante’s Sea Cliff to learn more.
