Leadership Speaker Series
Where Great Leaders Keep Learning
Nonprofit members have access to The High Center’s speaker series, bringing nationally recognized business and leadership experts to Central Pennsylvania. You’ll explore ideas and proven practices around leadership, culture, strategy, innovation, organizational performance, succession, and other issues shaping today’s organizations. And because nonprofit leaders learn alongside leaders from family and privately held businesses, the experience creates something particularly valuable: the opportunity to learn across sectors, exchange perspectives, and bring new thinking back to your organization.
