Latino Leader CCL Fellowship

LIDERAMOS has indelibly shaped my leadership journey, bringing into sharp focus the transformative influence of communal thinking. This profound experience served as the lens through which I recognized and embraced my unique leadership style—one rooted in the communal mentality. Amidst a leadership landscape that predominantly celebrated individual achievements, I often felt like an outlier.
 
Through the enlightening journey with LIDERAMOS, I discovered that my superpower lies in fostering communal bonds. This revelation has not only provided a sense of belonging but has also amplified my effectiveness in various leadership roles. Now armed with this understanding, I can confidently unveil and share my leadership superpower.
 
The essence of prioritizing the collective well-being and growth within a group has become the cornerstone of my leadership philosophy. Recognizing the interconnectedness of team members and empowering them to actively contribute has proven to be the linchpin for achieving sustainable success. In sync with this communal approach, I navigate leadership challenges with a profound understanding of the strength derived from our collective endeavors.

Program Overview

Latino leadership can be more effective and have greater impact when directors and staff participate in leadership development at the highest level and utilize this knowledge to improve their programs and communities. To accomplish this LIDERAMOS is fostering a Latino Leaders Fellowship in partnership with the renowned Center for Creative Leadership (CCL). The fellows attend the 5-Day Leadership Development Program (LDP) at CCL receiving training utilized by thousands of corporate executives each year – very few nonprofits can afford this caliber of leadership development.

The fellows cohort meet to discuss their experience and to recommend on how to bring what they learn at CCL to the broader LIDERAMOS community and more importantly their local workspace, leadership programs and initiatives. All the fellows attend the Annual LIDERAMOS National Symposium to be celebrated and to put into practice their leadership skills.
