Leadership Wisconsin

Established in 1983, Leadership Wisconsin develops state leaders in communities, businesses, and government. Forty-eight fellows are chosen to participate in real-world learning experiences, classroom activities, and field experiences organized into a series of practical seminars over a two-year period. They gain analytical tools, sharpen their communication skills and engage in a growing network of leaders. In addition to the three-day seminars in-state, the program includes a one-week seminar in Washington, DC, a two-week seminar in another country, and a one-week seminar in another state outside of the Midwest. All applicants must be Wisconsin residents with demonstrated leadership abilities.
