Being part of Leadership Ohio means being part of a diverse and intricate network of business and civic minded Leaders whose reach is local, statewide, national, and international.  You will not only be amazed by 'who is on the bus,' you will be inspired by the depth of connection and commitment.  Leaders who are graduates of our signature program accept the call to "Go Forth and Lead." 

Our signature eight-month core program informs participants about key issues impacting the future of our state, and challenges them to broaden their reach and impact to effectively address those issues.  The Leaders selected for our program take a commanding role in making Ohio a better place in which to live and work and play.
