Building on the enormous success of the inaugural visit to Milwaukee last year, the 2nd annual Generation Now Leadership Visit (GNLV) is a 3-day to trip to Fargo for promising, innovative leaders, like you! The GNLV wants delegates looking for a unique opportunity to strengthen their leadership skills for personal and civic development.
We will see, experience, and explore as much of Fargo as possible through presentations by various nonprofits, government agencies and business leaders who influence civic decision-making and are invested in their community development. In addition to two-days of a civic-driven agenda, delegates will attend the OTA-Pollen Fargo event and receive exclusive access to national thought leaders.
The Generation Now Leadership Visit encourages organic conversations, while sitting on a bus, standing in a buffet line or touring a small urban farm. The trip is filled with engaging professional conversations that force delegates to think about their work from new perspectives and consider the impact of their work on other fields. In addition, it gives leaders an opportunity to "practice" articulating what their organization does, and the mission of their work, to a diverse audience.
