Leadership Discovery, a leadership development program by the Charleston Metro Chamber, is excited to welcome the Spring 2021 class. Leadership Discovery is an innovative program that allows participants the opportunity to learn from experienced business leaders in the Charleston region.

Participants in this program build valuable community connections and gain skills that will directly impact their current work. In addition to six mentor sessions, they will receive a personalized DiSC Leadership Profile Assessment from Jean Meeks-Koch, Ph.D., CEO and Founder of Positively People, LLC, and attend a three-course business etiquette dinner led by Cynthia Grosso of Charleston School of Protocol.

This year’s class will begin on February 23 with a socially distanced orientation in the Chamber Boardroom and will conclude in May.
