"Session may be over but that doesn't mean I'm done working for my
district. With these two opportunities, I hope to learn from both experts and
my fellow classmates how to better serve my constituents and bring back ideas
to make my district and Arizona an even better place to live, learn and work,"
said Senator Bowie. "I'm honored to be selected for these programs and I
look forward to participating in both this summer."
The Toll Fellowship, named for CSG founder Henry Wolcott Toll, is one of
the nation’s premier leadership development programs for state government
officials. Each year, the Toll Fellowship brings 48 of the nation’s top
officials from all three branches of state government to Lexington, Ky., for an
intensive five-day, “leadership boot camp.” The program’s sessions are designed
to stimulate personal assessment and growth, while providing priceless
networking and relationship-building opportunities.
The Emerging Legislative Leaders Program is designed specifically for the
next generation of leaders in state legislatures. The program is held every
July on the campus of the University of Virginia, in partnership with the
distinguished Darden School of Business.
Up to 50 of the best and brightest state legislators from across the
nation take part in 4 days of challenging classroom discussions, led by a team
of professors at the Darden School. Since 2005, over 600 legislators have
benefited from their experience at this program, and a significant number have
continued their careers in public service. Many have achieved positions of
leadership in their states.
Through this unique program, SLLF and Darden seek to broaden the
perspectives of these men and women, instilling in them a clear understanding
of their responsibilities as custodians of the public’s trust and seeking to
inspire them to meet the challenges of the future with confidence and vigor.
