Welcome to the Emerging Leaders' Network Home!

What is the Emerging Leaders Network?

Minnesota's Emerging Leaders Network (ELN) is a program that identifies potential leaders in public health and provides them with information and experiential learning opportunities that enhance their leadership skills and help build the confidence needed for leadership roles. ELN goals focus on building a diverse workforce and providing the stimulus for emerging leaders to expand professional networks to accomplish public health goals. While most leadership training programs recruit people already in leadership positions, the ELN intentionally seeks those with leadership potential, regardless of their current job title.

Application materials for the 2010 program are available on the "Applying to the ELN" Web page.

The Emerging Leaders Network (ELN) is a year-long program designed to strengthen and diversify leadership for the public's health. It is also a statewide network of public health leaders skilled in collaborative leadership who share resources, contacts and expertise.

The goals of the Emerging Leaders Network are to:

  • Increase the diversity among Minnesota's public health leaders;
  • Build leadership networks across public, private and nonprofit sectors that advance the public's health; and
  • Enhance leadership skills and build confidence of potential public health leaders.

The program includes four two-day retreats during which participants are exposed to new concepts of collaborative leadership, practice new skills, and take part in challenging experiential learning situations and guided self-reflection.
