Leadership Sandy Springs (LSS) has announced the 34 members of the new LSS Class of 2023.
The diverse group of experienced and emerging leaders, the class began their nine-month community leadership development program last weekend with a retreat at Unicoi State Park in Helen, Georgia.
“It’s one of our program’s highlights. Everyone gets to know one another better and identify individual strengths and leadership styles,” said LSS Program Director Catherine Lautenbacher, a 2011 graduate of the program.
Following the retreat, class members attend monthly program days and special events to educate them about Sandy Springs and the Greater Perimeter area, enhance leadership skills, deepen civic understanding, and connect them with leaders across many sectors.
“We’re proud to say that community doesn’t just happen, but that we [Leadership Sandy Springs] help create it,” said Rosalyn Putnam, the nonprofit’s new executive director. “Since 1987, Leadership Sandy Springs has graduated nearly 1,000 alumni who make a positive impact in our community and region. They lead nonprofits, large and small businesses, and organizations, serve on boards, city councils and commissions, and volunteer their time and talent to build a thriving, inclusive community.”
