Step Up, Stand Out, and LEADelaware!


The LEADelaware Class III planning committee has announced revised dates for its two-year agricultural leadership program. The sessions will begin on September 12, 2012 and continue through spring 2014.

The program is seeking 15-20 candidates just like you, who are involved in the agriculture industry as professional employees, farmers, teachers, or other related career fields and have a desire to be the next generation of leaders within the agricultural community.

During the two-year program, class members will participate in teamwork and leadership activities, visit local and regional agribusinesses, meet agriculture policy makers, and plan an international trip to experience diversity in perspectives and agricultural practices.

Bill McGowan, UD community development extension agent in Sussex County and LEADelaware committee member says, “LEADelaware is an opportunity to learn and experience leadership.”

Do you think you have what it takes to step up, stand out, and lead Delaware’s $8 billion industry? If so, hurry because the deadline is Friday, June 15, 2012!
