Kara Weishaar Graduates Leadership North Carolina’s 27th Class

Director of Government Relations and Association Management Kara Weishaar joined the 27th graduating class of Leadership North Carolina (LNC) on September 23, 2020. This year’s graduation was held virtually, but according to the LNC, the graduates will have a formal graduation ceremony as soon as circumstances allow. The LNC has dubbed this group of fifty-five civic and community leaders as the “Most Adaptable Class Ever,” completing the program despite tornadoes, a pandemic and various other disruptions.

The 27th graduating class was comprised of top leaders from the government, business, nonprofit, and education sectors. Through LNC’s program, participants gained new insight into North Carolina’s strengths and challenges and developed their own priorities for ways they can improve and empower their communities and the state as a whole.
