Interested in joining a future Leadership Celina class? We encourage you to learn more about the program and application process through the Celina Chamber of Commerce.

The future of Celina is shaped by those willing to lead, serve, and get involved.

Leadership Celina Class 5 officially crossed the finish line a couple of weeks ago. Over the past year, this cohort built relationships, explored issues shaping our community, and developed projects designed to make a lasting impact in Celina.

Thank you to everyone who supported the program and helped make this year's experience a success.

Leadership Celina Goes to Austin!

Today, our Leadership Celina and Leadership Prosper classes traveled to Austin for an inside look at how decisions are made at the state level and how those decisions impact our local communities. The group toured the State Capitol, met with state representatives, and had the opportunity to ask questions, share perspectives, and learn more about leadership in public service.

Trips like this are an important part of the Leadership program because they connect local leadership with state leadership and help our participants better understand how to advocate for Celina’s future.

Thank you to the Prosper Chamber for your continued partnership!

Leadership Celina Class 5 | Economic Development Day

We explored:
• How we support local small businesses
• How we attract national retailers
• How development is navigated
• How branding shapes downtown momentum
• What major retailers look for when choosing Celina

Economic development is not accidental. It’s coordinated. It’s strategic. It’s collaborative.
