“The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.” President James Buchanan For more information contact:

Any community’s future lies in the quality and dedication of its public elected officials and private sector leaders. In order to lead any community forward leaders must be willing to critically look at the past, study the present and plan for the future. Such a course of action takes a strong commitment to analyze the communities strengths and weakness and to educate and encourage new leaders to step forward to work toward that future. The Rock Springs Chamber of Commerce and the Green River Chamber of Commerce joined together to provide the educational opportunities to develop and enhance leadership skills among the residents of Sweetwater County, along with WWCC. The resulting Sweetwater County Leadership Institute is currently offering its eighteenth program in 2018. The three organizations are dedicated to providing the training and background of Sweetwater County issues and concerns in order to encourage knowledgeable citizens to step forward and assume the challenges of leadership within the county.
