Our Seminars At A Glance
Our three-day seminar is offered twice a year to spouses who are eager to build their leadership toolbox and join a community of service-minded people. Previous seminar topics have included: Making Leaders, Leading with Strength, Goal Setting, Communication, Conflict Resolution, Overcoming Obstacles, Networking, Meeting Management, and Taking Care of the Leader. CLLS is operated entirely by volunteers who devote their time and talents to develop the curriculum, identify guest speakers, facilitate small-group sessions, train new team members, and coordinate the administrative, logistical, and operational duties necessary to conduct each seminar.
