Womble Caryle attorneys Chris Oldham and Tripp Greason were inducted into Leadership Winston-Salem on June 8. Governor James B. Hunt delivered the event's keynote address.
 
Leadership Winston-Salem, founded in 1984 by Thomas K. Hearn, Jr., Julius H. Corpening and C. Edward Pleasants, is a comprehensive program intended to develop and foster community leaders. Likened to a community MBA, participants benefit through active engagement, attending one Program Day each month and working in Action Learning teams to address an actual challenge faced by a local organization or agency.
 
The program challenges participants to increase their personal and collective capacity to transform the community through civic engagement, servant leadership and building social capital.  Components include:
  • Informative sessions with community leaders
  • Experiential group activities
  • Relationship building/networking opportunities
  • Opportunities for honoring all aspects of diversity
  • Action Learning Projects addressing community needs
  • Emphasis on servant leadership
