About us
Leadership Kentucky, created in 1984 as a non-profit educational organization, brings together a selected group of people that possess a broad variety of leadership abilities, career accomplishments, and volunteer activities to gain insight into complex issues facing the state. Our goal is to prepare our participants to take an active role in advancing the state for the common good. By fostering understanding among community and regional leaders, Leadership Kentucky graduates bring a fresh and informed perspective to their communities and companies, serving as important participants in the unified effort to shape Kentucky’s future. Through a series of seven monthly, two-day sessions, held in various locations in the state, our participants are educated about the state of Kentucky and its challenges. They meet and talk with Kentucky’s current leaders and through a systematic educational program, explore the state’s opportunities, needs and resources. Kentucky’s rich cultural heritage and its unique diversity are woven throughout the curriculum that features the state’s economy, education, health and human services, law and justice, and the environment. In addition, Leadership Kentucky provides a thought-provoking experience focusing on the attributes of leadership and what it means to be a leader. By visiting various regions of the Commonwealth, class participants develop an enhanced view and a new meaning to the word community that spans the entire state.

Congratulations to David Deyer, ELEVATE Class of 2022, on joining the Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana Young Leaders Board!
Excited to share I am joining the Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana's Young Leaders Board! Over the past two years, I have had the pleasure of serving Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana as a vendor partner. Recently, I have extended my work to include Goodwill Industries of Kentucky, too. These partnerships have given me the opportunity to visit over 100 Goodwill facilities and see their impactful mission firsthand. Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana is dedicated to providing jobs to individuals facing employment barriers, operating 16 tuition-free, public charter high schools for adults, and offering support to thousands of families through a nurse-family partnership program. The organization's innovation shines through initiatives like an e-commerce platform, 4 outlet stores reusing unsold fabric, and a Commercial Services division providing manufacturing and assembly services primarily staffed by those overcoming employment obstacles. I am thrilled to support and champion the incredible work of this organization!
