LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (September 24, 2026) – The 42nd class of Leadership Greater Little Rock (LGLR) has been selected, and all 53 members have one thing in common: they are leaders within their respective industries and are interested in expanding that involvement across the region. Established in 1985, LGLR is a nine-month community leadership program created by the Little Rock Regional Chamber. It is designed to develop effective leaders by enhancing their civic, social, and professional awareness to positively impact our community. This year’s class is chaired by Dr. Richard Moss, Dean of Fine Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences at UA–Pulaski Technical College, and co-chaired by Cathy Tuggle, Owner of Apartment Hunters. Both are graduates of LGLR.
Participants will meet one day every month at a different central Arkansas location to explore topics through expert speakers, panelists, tours, and group presentations.
