Do You Have What It Takes To Be A Leader In The MSBA?
What is the MSBA Leadership Academy?
The Maryland State Bar Association Leadership Academy offers a 12 month program
designed to assist lawyers become better leaders and offering opportunities
for future leadership roles in the MSBA.
Each year
15 Fellows are chosen from applications submitted to the MSBA. During their
term, the Fellows will spend time attending MSBA events, developing and implementing
a public service project, as well as attending a special program on public
speaking, media relations, interviewing skills, conducting effective meeting,
budgeting and many other related areas. Fellows establish a relationship with
past Bar Presidents and current bar leaders to learn more about the MSBA and
to enhance leadership skills.
Team building
is a significant part of the Academy, wherein the Fellows develop relationships
that will last long after the Academy. The skills the Fellows learn will benefit
the MSBA, the local or specialty bar associations and the public as a whole.
