"Leadership Santa Fe is helping me build the kinds of relationships that better my life and my work, with the added potential of helping address the complex issues that face our community" - Participant, Class of 2009/10

"Leadership Santa Fe is a chance to hear the voices and perspectives of people I might not otherwise interact with. It’s time well spent together discussing, researching, learning and reflecting, in a way that our busy professional and personal lives do not often allow" - Participant, Class of 2009/10

“With everyone's busy lives, there is constant demand on putting out fires... The skills training to develop strategic thinking was excellent.” - Participant, Class of 2009/10

“The leadership training has helped me work better within the team format, honing listening and communication skills. It has been fun to get to know people of very diverse backgrounds. Meeting community leaders allowed me access and insight I normally would not have had. I would highly recommend this program” - Participant, Class of 2009/10

Leadership Santa Fe, founded in 1983 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, gives civic-minded people a vehicle for their community-oriented energies and trains them in specific leadership skills. In 2009, LSF became a program of the Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce, broadening its reach and community. We recognize that in "The City Different", leadership comes in many forms and from every sector of the community. Leadership Santa Fe is an annual program where a diverse group of community members is introduced to a broad spectrum of organizations, governmental leaders, and issues facing Santa Fe. Our participants use this 'living classroom' to challenge and develop their own leadership capacities as well as their own interest in working for Santa Fe's common good.
