What Graduates Are Saying

“I graduated from the LBC program in the 2013 class and I truly realized how great our community is. LBC really opened my eyes to how much everyone contributes at all levels to separate us from other communities with similar size. I feel proud to be an LBC alumni and part of this great community.”

Vince MooreBusiness Owner at Allstate Insurance

“I really enjoyed my LBC experience, and am so glad I made time to take the course. I learned a lot about the Columbus Community, a lot about different leadership styles, but especially a lot about myself! I'd highly recommend this course to anyone looking to better themselves as both a co-worker and citizen.”

Dr. Mandy WyantDoctor and Business Owner at Family Chiropractic and Wellness

LBC taught me how to succeed in the community and become the type of person that takes on challenges and gives back to the community.
