"The second big contributor was my year in Leadership New Jersey. It really provided me with a "master's degree" in the challenges and issues facing the state, who is working on these and what some of the ideas are that have been put forth to address them over the years. It gave me the ability to understand our member's work and the causes they support in a much richer way." read more...

Leadership New Jersey helps leaders in New Jersey become leaders of New Jersey
LNJ seeks out men and women with successful professional lives who at the same time are engaged in their community as civic leaders. It recognizes them for their accomplishments, informs them about the key issues shaping the future of the state, and challenges them to take on wider responsibilities to make New Jersey a better place in which to live and work. The year-long seminar program is just the beginning of the Leadership New Jersey experience. Fellows remain active in the graduate network and can take part in projects and activities that reflect the goals of the program.
Mission Leadership New Jersey educates, empowers and engages talented leaders to create systemic change around New Jersey's most challenging issues.
Vision Making New Jersey a better place to live and work for all through informed, effective leadership.
Values We value education as a means to:
- Civic engagement
- Ethical leadership
- Respect for difference and diversity, and
- Collaboration and collegiality
Leadership New Jersey begins with an application for selection as a Leadership New Jersey participant. Selection is competitive and applications are due in September of each year. Candidates learn the decision of the Selection Committee in mid to late Fall and are introduced to the state at a ceremony in early December. The seminar program begins in mid to late January.
