Get to Know Leadership Triangle
The Triangle area has a bright future.
Our forward-looking community exudes promise and energy from every corner.
To live up to this promise, we need leaders to step up, build a cohesive vision for the region as a whole, and make our potential a reality for all.
Leadership Triangle exists to train these leaders and connect them into a strong network with a shared vision, intent upon seeing each other succeed.
Over the last 30 years, 1,000+ Triangle leaders have completed our programs, building positive momentum and community impact. And we’re just getting started.
Leadership Triangle Serves
To educate, develop, connect and activate leaders committed to making the Triangle the best place to work, live and thrive.
We envision that all residents of the Triangle enjoy the highest quality of life for themselves and future generations.
Self-awareness | Interdependence | Equity | Transformation
Self-awareness: We believe we can’t lead without first knowing who we are - our strengths, our biases, and our blind spots. Self-awareness is the foundation of emotional intelligence and the bedrock of leadership.
Interdependence: We believe in creating right relationship between individuals, systems and our environment. Our success and well-being depends on the success and well-being of every person, organization, and community within the Triangle.
Equity: We recognize that, along all spectrums of identity, systems have been designed to create harm for some and benefit for others. We work to correct these imbalances and ultimately, see justice and liberation realized for our full community.
Transformation: Change is constant; we believe that there is always room for personal growth and progress in our region.
The Triangle’s quality of life and future growth depends on our ability to work across these boundaries to find common ground.
