  The American Leadership Forum is dedicated to joining and strengthening established leaders in order to serve the public good.




The American Leadership Forum (ALF) is a non-profit organization, national in scope, dedicated to joining and strengthening established leaders in order to serve the public good. It enhances leadership by building on the strengths of diversity and by promoting collaborative problem-solving within and among communities. The Charlotte Region Chapter of the American Leadership Forum is the flagship program of The Lee Institute.

Annually, 25 leaders drawn from every sector throughout this region are invited to participate in a yearlong intensive leadership development program. The program consists of monthly seminars and intensive dialogue on:
  • collaborative leadership
  • consensus
  • conflict management
  • understanding differences
  • ethics
  • leadership systems
ALF Fellows also participate in a five day wilderness experience, run by North Carolina Outward Bound. Upon graduation, these Senior Fellows join an active network of over 1,000 graduates nationwide, and continue to work together on regional problems. The deep relationships and networks of responsibility developed during the ALF experience will provide important benefits for the greater Charlotte region.

Bill Grace joined Class VIII for a day of discussion around Ethics in Community Leadership. We took advantage of Bill's presence on the East Coast and invited several leadership groups to join Sr. Fellows for a seminar on Ethical Leadership and the Common Good. Community Building Initiatives, Whitehead Associates Inc. and Wildacres Leadership Initiative joined us for a morning of conversation around living lives of integrity while pursuing the common good.
