OTA Leadership Academy 2.0 Graduates First Class

The Ohio Township Association Leadership Academy graduated 17 township leaders from across the state from the new 2.0 program. OTALA 2.0 was created exclusively for OTA members looking to further their leadership skills in their communities and have completed the OTALA 1.0 classes. 17 township officials and employees were part of the inaugural class dedicated to honing the critical skills necessary to support the needs of the township and shift focus from day-to-day managing to long-term strategic approaches to their positions.

This was a 13-month program that was held both online and in person in Columbus.  It consisted of training sessions/workshops.  An individual project was part of the curriculum and had to be created and completed that would enhance the Township. This program aims to help township officials lead with vision, inspiration, and authenticity

We are proud to congratulate one of our own Trustees:  Martin Warchola for his commitment to the completion of this program.
