The Hilton Head Island-Bluffton Chamber of Commerce began its Leadership program in 1985. It was designed to cultivate leadership resources within the community by giving participants the opportunity to study and experience the Hilton Head Island, Bluffton, Okatie and Daufuskie Island communities—their history, government, economy, human services and culture.
The curriculum provides broad-based leadership perspectives to familiarize participants with the area's challenges, opportunities and resources. It also includes a class initiated community project challenging participants to explore current needs and issues first hand.
The Leadership Class runs from August through May. For more information on applying for Leadership Hilton Head Island-Bluffton, please click here.
