THE LSM

EXPERIENCE

Leadership Southern Maryland (LSM) is not your typical leadership development program. We leave the textbooks behind and go behind the scenes to focus on our region’s challenges. Founded in 2008 as a community leadership development nonprofit, LSM provides local leaders experiential opportunities to connect, broaden their knowledge of our community and its needs, and expand their leadership capabilities for the greater good of Southern Maryland.

LSM HOMECOMING 2023

LSM reunites “Under the Lighthouse” at Calvert Marine Museum on Thursday, October 5th, 5-7pm. Come and reconnect with your class, network with other LSM graduates, meet the Executive Program Class of 2024, and find out which class has earned official bragging rights as the Best Class Ever for 2023!

‘Tis the season to give and give thanks! As you reflect on where your year-end gifts can have an impact, please consider Leadership Southern Maryland. With support from individuals and organizations like you, LSM provides community-driven learning experiences that connect, inform, and inspire Southern Maryland leaders to ignite positive change in our region.

“My favorite part of LSM was the friendships I built as well as the industries I had a chance to experience. Each one provided me a wealth of information and knowledge as to how our communities plan and develop as well as depend on each other.”

Maria Thorpe, LSM ‘18 ––––– Learn more

“I really appreciated the broad representation across the local community and government. I did not grow up here and so I had a limited understanding of some of the deeper social and economic issues in the local communities. My LSM experience taught me a lot of things I didn’t know about those local issues.”
