About
The Rural Leadership North Dakota (RLND) program is an outstanding experience for experienced leaders and emerging leaders alike. From learning to communicate, to learning about industry, the high-quality curriculum applies to a wide range of leaders.
If you’re an established leader or someone just getting started, we will work with you to finesse your skills while establishing a dedicated and talented network of leaders across our great state.
The four goals of RLND are:
- To create a network of people across the state and beyond that RLND participants will utilize for a lifetime
- To strengthen participants’ leadership skills including emotional intelligence, conflict management and effective communication
- To improve the quality of life for the participants, organizations and communities
- To prepare the participant to work with and implement a project in an organization or community
Inside-Out Approach
Using the inside-out approach, participants start by working on their relationship with themselves, move to improving their relationships with others and end by focusing on their relationships in the community to increase the success of their community programs.
