The Emerging Leaders peer group meets six times a year (every other month) via Zoom. In addition, in-person gatherings in various cities
to connect and share throughout the year.
The Emerging Leaders peer group is designed to foster personal development, grow industry networks,
and help propel our industry forward. If you’re a driven professional from a PIA MidAmerica member
company in Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, or Western Missouri, this program is your stepping stone.
