Our programs are about building solid and lasting relationships with other leaders, learning more about our community, and being inspired to make a difference.
Your Journey
Leadership Winston-Salem offers two immersive programs annually, FLAGSHIP and INSIGHT, each with a unique set of goals and objectives crafted to encourage engaging discussions and participation in immersive activities. Program days are focused on the history, current state, and projected future of the community in which we live, work, and play.
Our FLAGSHIP program for mid-level leaders incorporates collaborative activities such as relationship building exercises and action learning projects with an exploration of community dynamics and issues during monthly programming. This program is a nine-month commitment that elevates participant’s understanding of our city and county’s resources and services and empowers leaders to serve and improve our community and its residents. Since its inception in 1984, more than 2,500 community leaders representing the rich diversity of Winston-Salem’s business and enterprise sectors have been inducted into community stewardship through the program.
INSIGHT Winston-Salem for senior-level executives convenes every Spring for seven evening sessions. This invitation-only program is designed to connect key community and business leaders and their spouses or significant others in a facilitated forum environment that fosters engagement and collaboration for community improvement.
