Learning

Leadership San Francisco (LSF) is an organization dedicated to educating and developing community trustees who will make a significant contribution to strengthen and transform our community.

  

Leading

The LSF program develops future community leaders who are both knowledgeable about the city and concerned with its well-being.

Individuals selected to participate in Leadership San Francisco explore community trusteeship, the ambition to work for the common good and serve the primary needs of others by holding their community in trust. Becoming a community trustee is less a specific skill to be mastered than the acceptance and active pursuit of a new way of interacting with the community. It means purposely seeking a wider span of awareness.

Building Legacies

LSF graduates are challenged to use the knowledge and leadership skills they have obtained to give back to the community, working together on projects that enhance the quality of life in San Francisco. It is a goal of LSF to attract, educate and develop potential leaders to work together to solve professional and personal issues. The program offers a multitude of networking opportunities, with many graduates continuing on with successful careers in business, government and nonprofits. The role of LSF is recognized by both business and public leaders as a valuable resource to the community as well as the quality of life in San Francisco.
