“We have a series of programs all designed to really build a robust pipeline of community leaders for the city. We want to make sure that there are always people to step up into volunteer roles…” Hutton said.

Leadership Indianapolis was founded in 2013, but it’s an umbrella organization with all the programs existing before 2013. The Stanley K. Lacey Executive Leadership Series is the oldest and started in 1976.
