On October 14, 2010, at Philbrook Museum of Art, we will be honoring an outstanding group of Leadership Tulsa members who have demonstrated extraordinary talents, commitment and vision in serving our community. These wonderful leaders will receive a 2010 Star Award in honor and recognition of their service to our community. Out of that outstanding group, three Paragon Award winners will be announced. The Paragon Award winners will be presented an etched glass award and a $3,000 check, to be presented to their nominating agency, at the event on October 14th. It is a high honor to be nominated to receive a Paragon Award and an even greater honor to be selected to win one. The event will be the "Oscars" of leadership in Tulsa.
NEW this year! In the past, we have announced the Paragon Award winners several weeks prior to the event. This year, we want to pre-announce our nominees and save the excitement and pleasure of revealing the three Paragon Award winners by announcing them at the event.
Advance reservations must be made by October 7th. To make reservations online, go to www.leadershiptulsa.org or you may call the office at 918.477.7079 or email nancy@leadershiptulsa.org.

Leadership Tulsa and the North Tulsa Development Council (NTDC) are proud to announce an agreement to bring the successful north Tulsa leadership development program under Leadership Tulsa's umbrella.
Wendy Thomas, Executive Director of Leadership Tulsa explains, "This effort was made in recognition of the two organizations' complementary strengths and resources, their shared commitment to the economic prosperity of Tulsa as a whole and the north Tulsa community specifically, as well as to ensure maximum sustainability for the new program."
The North Tulsa Development Council is a result of the nTEDI four-month pilot leadership program created by Mayor Kathy Taylor in 2007. Following the inaugural academy, six leadership participants, as part of their class project, pledged to continue the leadership development program and The North Tulsa Development Council was born. Utilizing volunteer resources and a minimal budget these dedicated Tulsans successfully implemented NTDC Class 1 during the 2009-2010 year.
Thamara Barthelus, chairman of the NTDC noted, "Our first full program year was a tremendous success and a learning opportunity for all of us. We are looking forward to continuing that tradition. We will be maintaining the same mission and vision, but with the additional help of Leadership Tulsa's significant organizational resources."
Recognizing that the continuation of the program would require dedicated funding, a 501c3 tax-exempt certificate, and significant staff and volunteer support, the NTDC board turned to Leadership Tulsa and began partnership talks in fall of 2009. Sharing many similarities in mission and structure, the two boards agreed to bring the NTDC program under the Leadership Tulsa umbrella and a memorandum of understanding was entered into by both boards in April 2010.
Under the new agreement, NTDC will continue to address the need for educated, resourceful and committed leaders in the community. It complements the existing Leadership Tulsa program by focusing on a single area of high priority for our city and offering additional opportunities for grassroots leadership development.
Applications are now being sought for Class 2 of the North Tulsa Development Council leadership program. There is a $150 fee to participate in the program and applications are due by June 15, 2010. Interested applicants can find more at www.leadershiptulsa.org or by calling 477-7079.
