Appling County's Leadership Program, Appling Leads

What is Leadership?

It is an age old question and is often hard to define. Is leadership being an elected official? a business owner? the president of a civic group? the decision-maker in a family? You guessed right! All of the above. Being a community leader is about knowing what is going on in your community and also being a part of the movement forward.

Great leaders operate at a high level of community awareness. They know what their community assets are, what challenges they face and are willing to be involved with solutions. Great leaders also have a set of skills, some that are learned over a long history of experience and some that are taught. That is where Appling Leads comes in. This leadership class provides community members an opportunity to be part of something greater than just themselves. They will learn the ins and outs of our community, see some of our great assets and discuss ways to overcome our challenges.

We are looking for YOU! Join the movement and apply for the only adult leadership class for Appling County. We are looking for people of all ages, ethnicities, educational backgrounds and experience to join together for the betterment of our community.
