2014 NLC Institute Fellows Announced Today
MADISON, WI – New Leaders Council Chairman Chris Kelly, along with the Madison Chapter of NLC, is excited to announce the 2014 Institute class of outstanding, young leaders.
This year’s Fellows are a characteristically diverse class, including public and private sector employees, lawyers, aspiring politicians and those in the non-profit sector. Profiles of this year’s Fellows can be found on our website.
“I am very excited that the New Leaders Council has recruited a diverse class of men and women with the potential to become Wisconsin’s next generation of leaders in business, politics and law. By working together, they can truly shape the future of our great state,” said Wisconsin State Representative Robb Kahl, an advisory board member of the NLC Wisconsin Chapter.
The New Leaders Council Institute is the premier leadership and professional development, training, mentoring, networking, and career and political advancement program for young professionals. An intense, five-month progressive entrepreneurship training program, each NLC Institute is highly-selective, admitting only 15 to 20 Fellows to each program.
Each NLC chapter holds an Institute annually, often engaging local leaders to conduct sessions to create a uniquely-tailored experience where Fellows learn from guest speakers at the top of their field. NLC now boasts over 1,400 alumni throughout the country, which we engage through a robust alumni engagement program that includes networking events, educational webinars, and an active peer support network for professional development and entrepreneurial life plans.
“As an organization, we could not be more excited about the caliber of this year’s Institute class. Once again, our chapters have set an exceptionally high bar on the quality and talent level of the Fellows they have recruited. I am extremely confident this class of leaders will emerge more prepared than ever to become incredibly influential and to make a positive difference in their respective communities,” Kelly said.
Applications to become an NLC Fellow and participate in an NLC Institute in your area are accepted each fall, in early September. To learn more, please visit NLC’s website here.
