LMC hosts annual Leadership Excellence Masterclass

This month, 50 young LBM leaders from across the country came together for LMC’s annual Leadership Excellence Masterclass at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management.

The Leadership Excellent Masterclass is part of LMC‘s 21st Century Leaders program that focuses on professional development and leadership for LMC dealers who are typically in a senior management or executive position.

“As the leading LBM co-op in the country, we have a responsibility to our dealers, and to the health of the industry, to invest in professional development and leadership programs,” said Joel Gelb, vice president of stockholder relations for LMC. “As one of the top business schools in the nation, Kellogg was the ideal fit for our Leadership Excellence Masterclass.”
