WTCI helps existing and emerging leaders develop the skills, knowledge, and connections they need to create a healthy economy, environment, and society in the Mid-Atlantic and globally.
Leadership isn’t a corner office; it’s a mindset. It shows in how we face challenges, listen, and make space for others.
Leadership isn’t about your title—it’s about how you see, think, and act.
What perspective has shaped how you lead?
