Jennifer A. Rumph Graduates from the Lakeland Chamber of Commerce Leadership Class XXVII
Jennifer A. Rumph recently graduated from the Lakeland Chamber of Commerce’s Leadership Lakeland Class XXVII. Leadership Lakeland is a program created to identify and develop diverse future leadership for Lakeland and the Chamber of Commerce, and to motivate these potential leaders for community and chamber involvement and decision making. Each year, up to 80 community members apply for a chance to be selected into the program. 30 applicants are chosen to participate. During the course of the nine-month program, the participants are given an in-depth view of many different aspects and functions of the City of Lakeland, including the city and county government systems, the Polk County school systems, local health care organizations and human services helping throughout the City of Lakeland and Polk County. Jennifer intends to use her experience with Leadership Lakeland to pursue further volunteer opportunities within the community.
