Associate Leadership Collier welcomes Class of 2025
The Leadership Collier Foundation, an affiliate of the Greater Naples Chamber, is excited to announce the Associate Leadership Class of 2025. The class started their program with a kick-off celebration and its first session on Tuesday, Feb. 18.
“I’m thrilled to welcome our Associate Leadership Collier Class of 2025,” said Kristina Park, president and CEO of the Greater Naples Chamber. “ALC provides a unique platform for emerging leaders to connect with one another, learn from experienced professionals, and grow both personally and professionally. It’s truly an investment in the future of Collier County.”
Each winter, the Leadership Collier Foundation accepts approximately 40 area professionals for its Associate Leadership Collier program. The program is specifically designed for emerging leaders and professionals in Collier County between the ages of 21 to 40. Participants go through an intense, 10 session series of workshops focused on key issues impacting the community. After graduation, Associate Leadership Collier members can join the LCF Alumni Association and are encouraged to take an active role in civic and professional issues, address area challenges and work toward solutions in the public interest.
