Southern california leadership network
Mission
The mission of the Southern California Leadership Network is to train and develop a productive network of exemplary and diverse leaders in the business, government and community sectors who are capable of addressing the critical challenges facing the Southern California region. The organization’s core programs are Leadership Southern California and Leadership L.A.
About
In 2006, the Leadership L.A. Foundation, founded in 1987, and the Southern California Leadership Network, founded in 1989, joined forces in a new partnership with the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. Now programs of SCLN at the L.A. Chamber, Leadership L.A. and Leadership Southern California will continue to be the region's two premier leadership programs.
SCLN has already equipped nearly 800 civic-minded thinkers of both programs with the community and regional knowledge necessary to address quality of life issues in our region. Recruiting efforts are aimed at ensuring that the diversity of the region is reflected fully in the composition of the classes with special attention given to cultural, gender, age and professional diversity. Classes always include leaders from the ranks of private industry, government and the non-profit sector.
Sessions are designed with three key components that are distinctive to SCLN's programs:
# A comprehensive overview of the issue at hand
# Dialogue and discussion among peers and experts
# Behind-the-scenes exploration of access case studies

Developing Community Leaders in Los Angeles
Leadership L.A. has been strengthening the Los Angeles community by developing, training, and empowering emerging leaders since 1987.
The program includes about 25 selected participants to engage in nine monthly, full-day sessions devoted to key community issues exploration and leadership skills development. It is for individuals who are becoming increasingly active in community leadership roles throughout Los Angeles County. Participants get an in-depth knowledge of the county and build strong relationships between participants and the organizations they encounter.
Leadership Southern California
Developing Regional Leaders
Leadership Southern California is a unique, experiential “master class” on Southern California in the company of talented, high-energy peers.
Each year the program enrolls about 40 carefully selected mid- to senior-level leaders in a 10-session program that embodies the values of regional stewardship, experiential learning and a deep exposure to regional public policy issues. Participants travel across five counties, exploring cross-[...] themes while interacting with leaders of regional, state and national note.
