    October 6th, Linda Kirby, President and CEO of Leadership Indianapolis

    On October 6th, please welcome Linda Kirby, President and CEO of Leadership Indianapolis, to the Rotary Club. Leadership Indianapolis has a mission to develop and mobilize a robust pipeline of community leaders that can address and solve the issues and opportunities facing our growing metro area – for today and for the future. They believe that strategic community leadership can increase the vitality, strength and sustainability of Indianapolis. They recently joined with Walker to conduct a comprehensive community-wide assessment of Indianapolis community leadership in order to understand strengths and gaps in the training, development and engagement of Indianapolis community leaders. We hope you’ll join us as Kirby discusses the findings from the State of Community Leadership report (found here!) and presents a framework on how we, as Rotarians, can work to inspire, educate, connect, engage and build our Indianapolis community.
