INVESTORS
THANK YOU to the individuals, businesses and friends who invest to assure that trained leadership is available for the future of Texas agriculture.
They share the vision that people are the most important component in sustaining a bountiful food supply. These investors are the core of leadership in the agricultural industries they represent. They collectively are the owners of a leadership program.
It is important to note that a very high percentage of our investors are not one-time givers, but continue to support the program. Their vision is that building an ongoing leadership team is continuous -it builds on itself and results become more permanent as depth and maturity grows.
IN-KIND SERVICES
THANK YOU for the in-kind services from universities, businesses and individuals that sponsor seminars, instructors, facilities and meals which help make each session possible.
Taken all together, this program touches many people worldwide – a visionary network supporting development of leadership for today and the future.
