The Leadership Charlotte program is for emerging and existing leaders. It is our flagship program and is considered a “backstage” pass to the Charlotte community. It is a two-part program, starting with ten, once-a-month program days where approximately 50 participants explore current issues with a variety of community leaders. The program is complete after participants serve on a committee that coordinates one of these program days for the incoming class.
Program days focus on:

- Education
- Government & Politics
- Healthcare
- UMEUS
