Leadership Alexandria

Program Overview

The Chamber ALX is excited to bring Leadership Alexandria, a dynamic nine month civic-based leadership development program to new and established leaders in Alexandria.

This program features three components that provides participants with an extraordinary experience:

Alexandria Up Close and Personal

Participants will have the opportunity to hear from and speak candidly with the elected officials, public and private sector heads, change makers and innovators who make Alexandria run.

Topics explored include:

  • Local and state government
  • Economic development
  • Arts, culture, history
  • Nonprofit Service
  • Public safety and justice
  • Education
  • Environmental sustainability

Leadership Development Training

Leadership Alexandria utilizes the Work of Leaders framework to give cohesion and continuity to the developmental component of the Leadership Alexandria experience. The culmination of six years of research and development, The Work of Leaders presents a unified model of leadership – Vision, Alignment, and Execution – that neatly captures the complexity of contemporary leadership.
