Adult Leadership Upson

Adult Leadership Upson is a comprehensive, results-oriented leadership development program administered by the Thomaston-Upson Chamber of Commerce. The program is designed to inspire and prepare graduates to be active and effective leaders in the Upson County community through the following:

  • Education - Stimulating monthly programs held in locations throughout Upson County provide participants with insight on, and understanding of, a variety of important community issues.
  • Networks - Strong networks of valuable relationships are developed as participants who are selected to represent a variety of occupations and professional interests interact regularly during a retreat and other social activities.
  • Involvement - In-depth community-oriented projects provide a unique opportunity to increase community awareness, develop interpersonal skills and contribute to the community's progress.
  • Personal Enrichment - Special skills sessions result in increased self-esteem and self-confidence. Participants also earn leadership credentials upon completion of the program. Successful completion requires an investment of time and energy. A sincere commitment will prove beneficial to the participant and the community.

The 2025 Leadership Upson Program will begin in January 2025 and end in November 2025. Applications for 2025 are open and will close December 18, 2024. Completed applications can be dropped off at the Chamber Office or emailed to Madison at mruttinger@thomastongachamber.com.
