Atlanta, GA (PRESS RELEASE) “Linked 2 Leadership,” a new group of global professionals on the wildly popular business networking website LinkedIn^® announces the formation of its first Executive Board of Directors. The distinguished 12-member Board boasts 8 PhD’s from business and academic leadership positions and 4 noted business executives in the world of leadership development training.

The brand new Linked 2 Leadership^™ group, formed in the last week of March 2008, is gaining popularity as word gets out of its existence and its goal of providing fresh, relevant, and respected content for members interested in personal leadership effectiveness, organizational health, and personal & professional growth.

Linked 2 Leadership^™ founder and Executive Director Tom Schulte isn't very much surprised with the enormous popularity of the group. "As soon as I realized the voracious hunger that existed in this virtual community for quality leadership development resources, I knew that I needed to form a group to serve them." Armed with this new charge to serve the group with the best possible resources, Schulte immediately began an intense search for the most qualified and capable members to serve on the Executive Board for the group.

"I could not believe the elevated caliber of individuals who contacted me to join the group" on this popular leadership networking site, said Schulte. “I was truly impressed with their commitment to serve others with expert advice, blogging platforms, discussion board, wiki's, resource links, and downloadable resources!"

Schulte was even able to design 12 Advisory Board Chairman Seats to do the heavy leadership lifting for the group. The Advisory Committee will be charged with maintaining excellence in each of their respective roles.

If all goes as planned, the group should have a site built to serve its members by late spring 2008. A member’s only website will be available at www.linked2leadership.com.
