Members who participate will encounter the very best in personal and career development thinking presented by outstanding leaders and experience an attitude and environment conducive to deep, prolonged emotional, intellectual and professional growth. Information, practical tools, and stimulating dialogue are provided through interactive group sessions, small-team building sessions and personal reflection time.
LILI is a program exclusively for FAIFA members who are volunteer leaders in their local association or think they may have an interest in serving as a volunteer leader.
