Providing Fort Worth with Diverse and Enlightened Leadership

Click here to apply for the 2012-2013 Leadership Class.

The purpose of Leadership Fort Worth (LFW) is to provide Fort Worth with diverse and enlightened leadership. The program was one of the original pace-setters in the country in 1972 and continues that status well into its third decade.

LFW is based on the concept of community trusteeship. This concept challenges leaders to function as trustees, committing themselves to making their communities better places to live.

LFW is four-fold including two adult leadership development programs, a program for 8th graders, and continuing education for the full membership.

Spring 2012 President's Message

Dear LFW Members and Friends, The Fellows Dinner on March 8th was, by all early indications, our most successful ever, thanks to a super committee and wonderful cooperation from DFW Airport and American Airlines. We portrayed Jeff Fegan, CEO of the airport, as “The Most Interesting Man in the World” in song and skit. A new AA Boeing 737-800 was on display and some 550 people were treated to “The Most Entertaining Party of the Year.” Kick yourself silly if you missed it.
