Stillwater's Leadership Tomorrow
NEW Speaker Series

Wanting to develop leadership character in students, Leadership Stillwater Alumni Association initiated the Leadership Tomorrow program. The program first began in 1999 as an annual event that selected 20-25 high school juniors by application to participate in a day-long workshop of various leadership activities and instruction. The students also spent the evening in a hotel where their evening activity focused on team-building activities and learning more about their community from city leaders.

The program was successful, but the LSAA board realized the reach was narrow. In the fall of 2008, Leadership Tomorrow was expanded and taken in to the high school and re-formatted into a speaker series that is open to a wider group of students. The sessions are held during the lunch period, pizza and soft drinks are provided and the program is open to any junior or senior student at Stillwater High School. Series speakers are selected that are recognizable to the students and that have a leadership success story to share.

The goals of Leadership Tomorrow are to help students recognize their own leadership potential, develop leadership skills and understand their capability to impact the community. It is LSAA's intent to provide speakers that will influence the students and help them recognize that leadership skills and roles are developed and desired.

The speakers for the 2011-2012 school year include:

    11/30/11 Steve Irby President, Stillwater Designs Topic "How Kicker Got Started and How They Continue to Create Products that Raise the Expectations for Audio Performance"

The program directors for the 2011-2012 school year are Leadership Stillwater Class XVIII member Terri Moorman and Class XX member Connie Stokes.
