Developing Leaders to
Strengthen Communities

Leadership Wisconsin (formerly called WRLP-Wisconsin Rural Leadership Program) has a commitment to selecting diversity within each group of participants that includes geographical, professional, gender, ethnicity and other diversities, which greatly enrich the growth and development of the group as a whole. With such a large investment made in each group participant, we are determined to maximize this two-year experience for each and every person.

Every two years, up to 35 participants are selected for each group based on specific criteria. (Read more) Selection Criteria
