About the SUMMIT
The Leadership Summit is one of LMC’s signature events, bringing our mission of leadership development and meaningful connection to the broader Montgomery County community. Open to all - LMC alumni and non-alumni alike - the Summit offers a full day of professional and leadership development designed to inspire participants to better serve our community. Each year, the Summit highlights one of LMC’s core values. Past themes have included Character Counts, It’s We, Not Me, and Lifetime Learning. This year’s theme, We’re In on What’s Up - We Stay Relevant and Informed, emphasizes the importance of staying engaged in a rapidly changing world. Great leaders don’t simply react to change - they anticipate it by remaining curious, connected, and informed. Our dynamic speakers will share practical insights, diverse perspectives, and interactive experiences that challenge attendees to think strategically and lead with clarity and impact. We invite you to join us, and to bring your leadership team, board members, or others in your network, for a day of learning, connection, and growth. Register now, this year's Summit will be on Friday, August 28.

Nominate a Servant Leader!
Some leaders make the news. Others quietly make a difference.
At the Summit, LMC will honor a servant leader whose character, dedication and commitment to others are creating meaningful change in our community. Who comes to mind? Consider someone who empowers others, leads with humility and empathy, builds trust and consistently puts service before recognition. Nominees do not need to be LMC graduates. Help us give an extraordinary community leader the recognition they deserve.
