Interested in joining the Future Leaders Advisory Group?

The Future Leaders Advisory Group's mission is to help future leaders in the community to become more actively engaged in One Southern Indiana (1si) by providing a way to engage with one another, gain professional development, feedback, insight and the tools to succeed in their respective careers and community roles. This group will act as a voice for young leaders in the Southern Indiana and Louisville communities.

If you or someone in your company are interested in being a part of this new team, contact Kalisha Bass at KalishaB@1si.org.

As the economic development of communities continues to go global, it is important that the voice of the Greater Louisville and Southern Indiana region be heard when it comes to national issues that directly and indirectly affect this part of the country.
