YP Org Directory: Emerge Broward

Emerge Broward is a program of the Leadership Broward Foundation, Inc. and was developed in order to promote leadership and personal development among young professionals through networking, community involvement, and educational opportunities. Its mission is to identify the emerging leaders and young professionals of Broward County, connect them with each other and current leaders in the community, develop their ability to serve as community trustees, and engage them within the community. The program is designed to meet the unique needs of young professionals in the community, such as young professionals who are new to the community or new to their jobs, and are looking for ways to meet new people and become involved in the community. Emerge Broward helps young professionals who want to improve their leadership abilities and aspire to leadership roles in the near future. The Emerge Broward mission is based on the questions most frequently asked by young professionals, such as: What makes someone a good leader? How do I become a community leader? What do I need to know to serve as an effective board member? Emerge Broward helps answer these questions by providing a variety of activities to connect members with other like-minded professionals in Broward County, develop their leadership abilities, and engage them in meaningful volunteer opportunities in the community. Emerge Broward has four autonomous committees based on the pillars of the organization as outlined in the mission statement: IDENTIFY, CONNECT, DEVELOP and ENGAGE. Each committee meets monthly and provides a variety of events and activities to advance their purposes. Each committee has co-chairs with specific responsibilities. Additionally, each co-chair serves on the Executive Committee, led by two overall co-chairs. The Executive Committee has the responsibility of coordinating communication and providing support to the four committees. Emerge Broward currently has over 750 members.
