Developing leaders, improving our community
Leadership Hastings is an enrichment program coordinated by volunteers and designed to foster the community's quality of life through leadership development, awareness enhancement, and community involvement.
Leadership Hastings was started by a group of Hastings residents in 1987. During the last 25+ years the program has seen over 500 graduates. It is governed and class sessions are coordinated by a 22 member advisory board.

- Enhance leadership skills and qualities which lead to creative and insightful problem solving.
- To encourage involvement and commitment to sharing knowledge and leadership skills in community, work and family.
- Foster a diverse leadership base while at the same time creating an alumni network.
