Now Accepting Applications for the RFL Class of 2013!
Roaring Fork Leadership has been serving the valley for 24 years.  Each year we solicit the community for applicants, and then intentionally assemble a group of approximately 40 diverse community members that jointly embark on a journey of leadership discovery and breakthroughs. We now have over 600 alumni, 80% still living and working in the Roaring Fork Valley. Our community’s most important resource is our people, and Roaring Fork Leadership is an established and well-respected program to support the development of our citizens into leaders for the community.

In these uncertain economic times, it is more critical than ever for community members to have the skills they need to be an effective leader— whether it be at work, home or in the community.  Roaring Fork Leadership provides people access to skills that employers are looking for: critical thinking, collaboration, and engaging diverse perspectives. 

Our annual program entails taking a class through 100+ hours of training and dialogue critical for personal, professional, and community problem solving and effectiveness. Roaring Fork Leadership provides access to new ways of being a leader. Leadership is not something bestowed upon us, but rather a way of ‘being.’  RFL provides access for it’s participants to see possibilities where there were none, and gain a sense of personal efficacy — that they can make a difference. Inside of the RFL program, participants take on civic projects as a ‘laboratory’ for practicing new ways of ‘being’ a leader.  

While participation in our annual program requires a substantial commitment in time and energy, graduates of our program tell us again and again that the skills and relationships developed with Roaring Fork Leadership have positively changed their lives.
