Our Impact

  • "An exceptional program that, regardless of your current title and position, will elevate your leadership skills to new heights."

    COREY CLAYBORNE, WILEY WILSON

  • "Thank you for all of the lessons that I have learned. I feel that if it were not for Leadership Lynchburg, I would not have been promoted to Head of Supervision for my facility last week."

    TIMOTHY BIRCHFIELD, STARTEK

  • "Leadership Lynchburg has been extremely valuable to me as an individual and as a leader within my organization. The networking and team projects were by far the most beneficial. I have gained so much and I would highly recommend this program to anyone."

    SHARON MARTIN, OLD DOMINION UNIVERSITY-CV

  • "Leadership Lynchburg provided me with an opportunity to network with some really great people, and to learn something about leadership as well. The friendships I have gained will last a lifetime."

    GARY RAULERSON, INNOVATIVE WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES

  • "LL36 was an incredible journey into myself, into discovering my leadership style, and into discovering the value and power of a team."

    JOE HEPLER, DAVID JAMES HOMES

  • "This program has opened my eyes to the impact I can make in the Lynchburg community. It’s more than information-sharing, it’s a challenge to become an active participant in the sustainability and growth of Lynchburg."

    CLAUDIA POLLARD, BANK OF THE JAMES - FOREST

  • "Leadership Lynchburg introduced me to a community that, although I had grown up in, I realized had not fully known. The connections and friendships I made in LL have continued well past the end of the program and were a valuable contribution to my own professional development."

    JOHN HALL, BB & T

  • "This is an excellent program for individuals beginning their leadership journey or are new to the area. It has a great reputation and is very well organized and is well connected to the business community."
