Leland Town Councilman Bill McHugh successfully completed the Advanced Leadership Corps (ALC) training offered annually to select local elected officials by the School of Government at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
More than 200 local elected leaders from across North Carolina have completed this selective program since its inception in 2013.
ALC is an intensive leadership development program designed by the School’s Center for Public Leadership and Governance. The weeklong residential program is a dynamic experience that helps participants learn about their own leadership styles, inspire others to work toward a shared vision and gain insights into how to work together to build better relationships and achieve far-reaching results.
“Being selected for this program was an honor,” Bill said. “The experience was incredibly valuable, and I can’t wait to bring what I learned to my role as a Councilman.”
Generous financial support from the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners (NCACC) and Empower Retirement allows elected officials from across the state to attend with only a modest cost to the local unit of government.
