LEADERSHIP LACKAWANNA
EXECUTIVE PROGRAM CLASS OF 2019
“
The Executive Program
gives participants the
chance to strengthen
their connection to
the community. I have
discovered many regional
initiatives to be a part
of, most of which I never
would have known about
had I not participated in
this program.
– Jim Wisnewski,
Leadership Lackawanna
Executive Program
Class of 2018
Even though it is located in Monroe
County, Tobyhanna Army Depot has a
strong connection to Lackawanna County,
with roughly 40% of its workforce calling
it home. This connection is strengthened
by the Depot’s regular participation in
Leadership Lackawanna’s Executive Program,
which allows it to connect with regional
business professionals that might not have
otherwise known about what it has to offer.
“The Executive Program was an excellent
opportunity to engage with community
leaders, share ideas and best practices, and
network with peers,” said program participant
Jim Wisnewski. “One of the presentations
focused on driving change in an organization,
which introduced me to key experts in that
field, giving me knowledge I could bring back
to the workplace.”
