You should have received an email inviting you to participate on December 3rd, and a follow-up email from mbailey@newleaders.org, with the subject line “New Leaders: ELP Mid-Year Survey Reminder” on December 10th. The email contains a unique survey link that asks for your feedback around your experiences with the Emerging Leaders Program to date.
