Leadership Corpus Christi began in 1972 and is the third-oldest community leadership program in the country. The program prepares existing and emerging leaders to make a difference in Corpus Christi. Thirty participants are carefully screened and selected each year to attend the ten-month intensive training program designed to prepare dedicated, visionary leaders with passion to improve the quality of life for all persons and institutions in the Corpus Christi community. 

Leadership Corpus Christi is a program of the United Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce Foundation and supported by various businesses and organizations throughout the Coastal Bend.
