Founder’s Legacy
Leadership Jackson was established by a dynamic group of individuals in 1986 in recognition of the need for a program to develop leaders with an understanding of the promises and problems of the Metro Jackson area and a grasp of the diversity of the community. In 2006, the program’s scope increased which called for a name change to Leadership Greater Jackson.
