Commerce Lexington Announces Leadership Central Kentucky 2025 - 2026 Class

​The Leadership Central Kentucky program is announcing its newest class of regional leaders that will begin the 2025-26 leadership development program with an orientation retreat later this week in Madison County at the Historic Boone Tavern. Now beginning its 24th year, Leadership Central Kentucky’s mission for its graduates, is for them “to educate to lead, connect, and know our communities.”

Presented by LG&E and KU, participants will attend day sessions each month within the eight-county region that includes Bourbon, Clark, Fayette, Franklin, Jessamine, Madison, Scott, and Woodford counties. Class members will study community and regional topics such as transportation, education, economic development, quality of life, public advocacy, and agri-tourism. The topics are covered by knowledgeable speakers and panels, tours, interactive exercises, and class discussions.
