Leadership Tioga Grads

Leadership Tioga Graduation Ceremonies were held May 12 at the Pumpelly House Estates in Owego. 

The program is in its tenth year of operation, and 200 people have completed the program. Students take part in a ten-month program designed to educate, inform and empower leaders. The goal is to develop individuals for future leadership roles in our Tioga County. Leadership Tioga enlists people who live and work in Tioga County and are interested in developing their leadership skills and knowledge of local issues, as well as pursuing leadership roles in their community.

 The program consists of half-day sessions with several full day meetings. Classes are held in various locations in Tioga County to offer participants an opportunity to experience the flavor of the county. Presentations are made on various subjects such as: Education, Human Services, Tourism/Arts and Culture, Agriculture, Volunteerism and "Vision for Tioga County - Your Leadership Role."  Several times a year, Leadership Tioga meets with leadership programs from surrounding counties for combined meetings to network and share ideas.  Skill Building Sessions help identify and improve leadership skills.
