LEAD San Diego has been identifying, preparing, connecting and supporting San Diego’s current and future leaders since 1981. On September 17, 2009, after a competitive selection process designed to ensure diversity and balanced educational opportunities, a new class of 54 enthusiastic individuals will begin IMPACT San Diego, LEAD’S signature 10-month community leadership program, often referred as a “Master’s Degree” on the San Diego region.

The Impact San Diego program is a series of issues-oriented seminars held from September to May for one full day each month, and is followed with a Graduation program in June. These seminars are created by the LEAD staff and the Program Advisory Council, with the aid and expertise of area decision-makers. IMPACT San Diego 2010 Class Roster

In addition to the seminars, smaller action teams are organized as part of the Leadership Action Team Initiative. The Leadership Action Team provides assistance to area nonprofit organization as well as enhances each participant's leadership, teambuilding and collaborative skills. These projects also provide an opportunity for the class to leave a tangible contribution to the region. The motto of the initiative is: "Learn, Experience and Leave a Footprint!"

Projects are selected each year based on their correlation to the curriculum guidelines, including the ability to complete the project in five to six months, as well as be successfully integrated into the overall curriculum strategy. The results of these efforts will be reported to an audience of LEAD graduates, community stakeholders, agency partners and the general public at the conclusion of the seminar series.

Established in 1981, LEAD San Diego is one of the oldest and most prestigious co\mmunity leadership organizations in the nation and is highly regarded throughout the greater San Diego region. LEAD San Diego’s influential members represent all sectors of our community and are dedicated to providing leadership that is dynamic, meaningful, and relevant.
