In today’s constantly changing and increasingly competitive world, the vital role of leadership is more important than it has ever been. We have partnered with Grays Harbor College to create Leadership Grays Harbor (LGH), a civic and professional development program based on key leadership principles. It works to connect people from different industries and backgrounds to grow as leaders, while learning about the Grays Harbor community. The curriculum is experience-based and explores issues affecting our community through meetings and discussions with established leaders, site visits, individual projects, and other activities.
Leadership Grays Harbor has produced over 500 graduates since its inception in 1995 from local business, non-profit, and government backgrounds. Leadership Grays Harbor is the premier local program to grow as a professional and community leader.

Useful Documents
“Leadership Grays Harbor proved to be worth the investment of time for all involved! The speakers, content, and dialogue were engaging and inspiring. I finished the program having received more than I expected- and I would recommend the program as a unique tool for aspiring leaders in the GH community.”
“Leadership Grays Harbor was a fascinating experience that openly challenged assumptions about what values constitutes leadership. The course; even virtually, was exceptionally engaging. Chance Stewart brings a number of disciplines together to examine what it means to be a leader in today’s world: psychology, history, social science and how these elements interact in an increasingly interconnected and diverse world. I would highly recommend Leadership Grays Harbor to anyone who wants to learn more about understanding how to successfully motivate others while improving yourself.”
