Each year, the Rockwood Leadership Program selects twenty-four key non-profit leaders from across the nation to engage in its innovative yearlong fellowship, Leading from the Inside Out.
This invitation-only program is designed to create a dramatic shift in the capacity of experienced non-profit leaders to both lead their organizations and networks effectively, and to collaborate across the boundaries of issue area, political and organizing orientation, geography, and background.
In four years, Rockwood's year-long invitational training has emerged as one of the nation's leading 'learning laboratories' for experienced non-profit advocates and organizers.
