Leadership New Hampshire (LNH) has opened applications for its Class of 2027. Leaders from across sectors and across the state are encouraged to apply for New Hampshire’s statewide leadership program.
For more than three decades, Leadership New Hampshire has brought together leaders from the business, nonprofits, government, and academia to deepen understanding of the state, build trusted relationships, and strengthen leadership capacity. With more than 1,100 alumni statewide, LNH has played a significant role in shaping civic, economic, and community leadership throughout New Hampshire.
The LNH program is designed for leaders who are ready to broaden their perspective beyond their own organization or sector. Through experiential learning, site visits, and discussions with subject-matter experts and other leaders in their fields, participants gain a comprehensive view of New Hampshire’s opportunities, challenges, and complexities.
“Leadership New Hampshire exists to help leaders understand the state more fully and lead more effectively within it,” said Will Stewart, executive director of Leadership New Hampshire. “The program creates space for thoughtful dialogue, cross-sector learning, and relationships that continue long after the program year ends.”
Applications for the Class of 2027 are open to anyone who has lived or worked in New Hampshire for at least one year. The program seeks candidates with demonstrated leadership, a commitment to community involvement, and a desire to positively contribute to the state’s future.
To help prospective applicants learn more, Leadership New Hampshire will host a free, one-hour online information session, “Why Leaders Choose LNH,” on Thursday, February 12, from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. The session will provide an overview of the program, expectations, and application process, and will include reflections from LNH alumni. More information about the application process and the February 12 session is available at leadershinh.org.
