Leader Sauk County Institute of Leadership (SCIL)

The Sauk County Institute of Leadership (SCIL) is a 9 month leadership development program consisting of an initial 2 day retreat followed by one day workshops and a graduation dinner. The SCIL sessions are typically held throughout Sauk county on the second Thursday of each month from September to May. Each session will focus on a different aspect of community leadership. SCIL brings together potential leaders from various segments of the community in a program that encourages and prepares participants for assuming leadership roles in the places of employment and in the Sauk County community.

If you live or work in the Sauk County area and you are interested in bettering yourself and your community, SCIL may be for you! The Sauk County Institute of Leadership has openings limited to 20 people who represent a variety of backgrounds and interests. The cost of the program is $425.00 per participant. It may be paid by the participant, employer, sponsor, or from a combination of sources. Limited scholarship assistance is available based on financial need.

The SCIL mission is to
develop informed, civic minded leaders who are committed to a vibrant Sauk County.
