About

The Leadership Pasadena experience produces empowered, inspired and connected leaders who strengthen Pasadena's diverse communities.

"Leadership Pasadena’s unique point of difference is their ability to provide life-changing experiences that work for the benefit of both the individuals involved, as well as their community."

--Justin Kibbe, Former Managing Editor & Associate Publisher, THE Pasadena Foothills Magazine; Leadership Pasadena Alumnus

Leadership Pasadena is a hands-on, community-focused leadership program that immerses community members in Pasadena’s rich history, government and infrastructure. The program also provides personal executive leadership training and coaching, helping participants build meaningful connections with area decision-makers. This is achieved through Leadership Pasadena’s in-depth, experiential classes taught by Pasadena’s top influencers, and through impactful team-based projects in collaboration with local non-profit organizations.

Effective May 2018, Leadership Pasadena launched a new Community Leadership Course for Veterans to re-mission them through community service leadership in the San Gabriel Valley!
