The Leadership Exchange Ambassadors Program (LEAP) is very proud to announce that 25 Mensans from 16 countries have sent in their applications for the 2012 program. From this diverse pool the LEAP Committee will select 6 or 7 Mensans who will present their topics at the American Annual Gathering in Reno, Nevada, in early July and then in Bali, Indonesia, September 21-23. This "exchanging" of creative ideas and innovative solutions to similar challenges that all Mensa groups face is the main thrust of LEAP. The applicants will be judged on their presentations' relevance to Mensa groups and their ability to communicate their messages. The LEAP Committee will have a difficult time choosing 6 or 7 - no doubt most applicants are excellent speakers with wonderful topics!
Finalists will be announced at the end of March. Countries that are participating, that is have nominated one or more or their members, are: Greece, Hungary, Germany, Australia, Serbia, Canada, Slovakia, The Netherlands, the U.S., Sweden, South Africa, Norway, the Czech Republic, Brazil, Malaysia, and Korea.
Thanks to all the chairmen and presidents of the various countries and others who encouraged members to participate!
Stay tuned for the final results!
