Opportunity Tallahassee is an intensive, one-day overview of our community providing a big picture view of our city. The program is designed to acquaint participants with the physical, social, economic and educational structure of Tallahassee. In addition to meeting and networking with some of the area’s key decision makers, Opportunity Tallahassee participants are given contacts and resources which enable them to become more effectively involved in community issues.
The program is designed for corporate executives, managers and other professionals who may be new to the community and are looking for a behind-the-scenes look at some of the best that Tallahassee has to offer – with a minimum expenditure of time. It is valuable especially for leaders or potential leaders in the community whose professional commitments have precluded participation in the more time-intensive Leadership Tallahassee program.
Designed by members of Leadership Tallahassee, the comprehensive curriculum focuses on Tallahassee’s history, culture, government, education and economic development. Participants have a chance to meet with government officials, visit local cultural landmarks and developing areas, and examine the area’s educational and economic communities. Detailed itineraries are sent to each participant prior to the program day.
