Selection Process

Each Leadership Tomorrow class is selected through a competitive process conducted by a Screening and Selection Committee. Approximately 72 individuals are chosen each year based on strong criteria including: a commitment to civic involvement and to the Puget Sound region, the potential for community leadership, and an individual's professional as well as personal achievement. Because diversity is an important goal, other factors affecting the final make-up of the class, including employment sector, age, ethnicity, gender, and geographic location may be considered. Candidates must have their employer's permission in order to be considered.
