Leadership Hastings
Leadership Hastings, presented by the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce, is a series of seminars, tours, and networking opportunities designed to enhance community awareness and develop emerging leaders in Hastings.
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.
