Launched in September, 2023, under the guidance of its founder and executive director, Fr. Kramer Cameron, LC, the Florence Leadership Academy is an initiative designed to form, train, inspire, and accompany young people towards their leadership potential. The program offers high school students training in ethical, sustainable, and inclusive leadership through monthly meetings where participants have the opportunity to meet prominent leaders in a wide range of fields, such as the arts, culture, architecture, fashion, technology, sports, healthcare, education, and business. Through talks and workshops, members of Florence Leadership Academy learn from the personal experiences of leaders across a variety of disciples, while meeting and networking with other young people from around the world, creating what Fr. Kramer hopes will launch a “leadership renaissance” among today’s youth, and tomorrow’s leaders. “We believe that young people have unlimited potential and an infinite desire to do good and have an impact,” says Fr. Kramer. “We want to tap into this potential and create a movement which changes leadership forever.”
