I found Leadership Livingston to be one of the most effective programs of its kind in southeastern Michigan. The governmental relations segment was very thorough, engaging and hands-on. It is time well spent, both in terms of your classmates and fellow community leaders, but also with respect to opening doors all over the county--affording a peek into the most important elements of our society. Whether new to the area, or if you’ve lived here all your life, the Leadership Livingston series helps one understand what makes this area unique and attractive from any point of view"Paul M.
