2025 CLS (2.0) Continuing Ed - "Building Trust"

2025 CLS Continuing Ed

With a legacy of over four decades in nurturing and molding talented individuals into exceptional community leaders, Community Leadership School (CLS) takes immense pride in announcing the third edition of our CLS Continuing Ed program. As a CLS program graduate, you have already acquired valuable knowledge and skills, and now we are excited to offer you the opportunity to take your leadership abilities to the next level.

CLS Continuing Ed will consist of five enriching sessions covering the topic of "Building Trust."

These five sessions will be built around the book titled "Trust Rules: How the World's Best Managers Create Great Places to Work," by Bob Lee (2017). This book will be distributed to all attendees the first morning. Sessions will also incorporate articles from the "On Trust" collection and will be shared as well with our participants. "On Trust" comes from the Harvard Business Review (2023). Additionally, YouTube videos from the following will be incorporated: Simon Sinek, Frances Frei, Colin Powell, Galen Emanuele, and Karen Amlin. 

We look forward to seeing you grow and thrive as you take advantage of this invaluable opportunity.

Sessions will be held from 8:30 - 10:00 a.m. on the following dates:
Thursday, October 2
Thursday, October 9
Thursday, October 16
Thursday, October 23
Thursday, October 30

All sessions will take place on the main campus of Joliet Junior College.
