The board of directors for the Flint Hills Regional Leadership announced that the application period for the 2024-25 class offering will take place May 15-July 20.

“The goal of the Flint Hills Regional Leadership Program is to motivate traditional and non-traditional leaders by teaching leadership skills.  Through an eight-session intensive training experience the program provides wisdom building opportunities for our emerging regional leaders,” says Jack Lindquist, Executive Director.

Qualified candidates must live within or work within the four counties of Geary, Pottawatomie, Riley and Wabaunsee, or Fort Riley. Sessions for the selected class members are held throughout the region with Orientation beginning at Rock Springs Ranch and Junction City in mid-September. The remaining seven sessions follow, roughly every three weeks, with graduation in February.

New this year, Morris County was added as an Associate Member to FHRLP. Emerging leaders in the county are now able to apply but should contact the county commission for application eligibility.
