Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Leadership now project is a national membership organization of next generation business leaders committed to renewing our democracy. We are enlisting our country's best talent - the innovators, influencers, and investors - and leveraging their (continued on schedule o) expertise, networks, and resources to advance the cause. Leadership now project transcends party lines with four universal principles: (1) we must protect our democracy while renewing it. (2) facts and science matter. (3) our economy must work for all. (4) diversity is an asset.

The leadership now project is a membership organization of business professionals concerned about the future of our democracy. Traditional models of giving to causes, candidates, and parties are insufficient for the challenges we face. A more strategic approach is required.
