WHA’s Rising Leaders

Mission
The WHA Rising Leaders Program will create and grow a network of leaders and mentors within the West Houston Association who will be able to share information, enhance understanding, and  collaborate on issues of interest to the association in order to make positive changes across the Greater West Houston region and beyond.

Program Overview
The WHA Rising Leaders Program is designed for those who plan to be active with the West Houston Association for a sizable part of their career. The program provides an accelerated introduction to the topics and issues of interest to the association and its members as well as an opportunity for networking among others who aspire to be leaders (i.e. serve as committee chair, vice-chairs, or take on major projects) within WHA in the coming years. The program involves seven sessions which focus on topics in alignment with WHA Committees and the 2060 Plan. At these sessions participants engage with experts, industry leaders, and creative thinkers who are able to highlight opportunities to improve quality of life across the Greater West Houston Region.  The program is guided by past participants who provide insights to continuously improve the experience.

The program has four main goals: Introduce WHA’s Rising Leaders to established leaders in WHA and the broader community to work to further facilitate quality growth in the Greater West Houston region and beyond. Cultivate Rising Leaders’ participation in WHA’s committees, events, and initiatives. Provide the perspective of WHA Rising Leaders to WHA, its Board of Directors, and the public. Facilitate ongoing learning and leadership opportunities for Rising Leaders in the West Houston Association and other key organizations
