Following an invigorating night of meeting with other Latinx leaders, the Conference on August 11th 9am-5pm, will address core challenges facing Latinx leaders, beginning with a discussion with key Oregon Latinx leaders on the essence of leadership, including, leading with values, how to be an effective leader, representing multiple constituencies, communication strategies, and coalition building.
