Leadership Northfield: Developing Leaders.

Building Connections.

Strengthening Our Community.

Great communities are shaped by informed, connected people who are ready to lead.

Leadership Northfield is a nine-month experience that gives emerging and established leaders a behind-the-scenes look at the businesses, organizations, people and issues shaping Northfield. Through engaging monthly sessions, participants build valuable relationships, strengthen their leadership skills and gain a deeper understanding of our community. For employers, it’s an opportunity to invest in a promising employee, expand their network and prepare them for greater leadership within your organization and our community. Invest in a leader. Connect them to Northfield.

Our 6th year begins on Wednesday, October 21. Please contact Janeb@northfieldchamber.com to inquire, register, or ask a question.
