City of Monroe issued the following announcement on Sept. 7.
City of Monroe Council Member Surluta Anthony successfully completed the Advanced Leadership Corps (ALC) training offered annually to select local elected officials by the School of Government at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
ALC is an intensive leadership development program designed by the School’s Center for Public Leadership and Governance. The weeklong residential program is a dynamic experience that helps participants learn about their own leadership styles, inspire others to work toward a shared vision, and gain insights into how to work together to build better relationships and achieve far-reaching results. More than 140 local elected leaders from across North Carolina have completed this selective program since its inception.
“I am privileged to have been accepted into the UNC School of Government LEA Advanced Leadership Corps,” said Anthony. “This was an invaluable experience where I learned more about leadership, sharpened my leadership skills, learned my leadership type, networked and grew as a leader. After graduating from the program, we are now Ambassadors for the program. I am happy to say I received an exemplary rating and I strongly encourage all elected officials to apply to the UNC School of Government for the LEI Advanced Leadership Corps. This will enhance our ability to serve our constituents better.”
Generous financial support from Prudential Financial allows elected officials from across the state to attend with only modest cost to the local unit of government.
