ABOUT LB

"Service, diversity, inclusion and openness to change"

This is our set of core values that we live by here at Leadership Buffalo. We are committed to developing the current and future leaders of Buffalo and Erie County based on these values; through the acceptance and practice of these values, leaders are created.

How does Leadership Buffalo create Leaders?

• By developing an in-depth understanding of the Buffalo Niagara region
• By meeting with other leaders from throughout the community
• By sharing hands-on experiences and networking with Leadership Buffalo colleagues, LB'ers are able to become more influential in the critical decisions facing the community and be effective agents of change.

Leadership Buffalo has expanded Western New York's social capital by graduating more then 800 individuals from a variety of our programs. Participants in LB's various programs explore the challenges, concepts, complexity and practice of community leadership around such issues as governance and regionalism, education, poverty, health care, economic development, cultural assets, diversity and criminal justice through a series of day sessions.
