“As someone born and raised outside of DeKalb County, I can say without a doubt that the Leadership DeKalb County Program opened my eyes to so much this area has to offer. From thriving tourism and industry to caring government officials and a strong education system, our group was able to experience so many facets of the county. I met new people throughout the program and forged valuable relationships that I hope will continue to grow. I would encourage anyone who wants to lead better, connect with others, and improve our area to participate in Leadership DeKalb County.” – Bryon Miller, Northeast Alabama Community College, Class of 2014-2015
“Leadership DeKalb is a tremendous organization that educates individuals on how to be better leaders for the people they serve. I enjoyed my time in the program by making new friends and learning so much about DeKalb County. The valuable lesson I learned during my time with Leadership DeKalb was that good leadership means looking forward and preparing for the future: Today, we educate the leaders for tomorrow.” – Nick Jones, City of Rainsville, Class of 2014-2015
