There are 80 members of the Leadership Memphis Executive Program Class of 2008. This is the 30th Executive Program Class for Leadership Memphis since being founded in the late 1970's.

The Class of 2008 will officially begin in September 2007, continue for 13 days during a 9-month period, and conclude with a graduation ceremony in May 2008. This is the second class to experience the newly redesigned Freedom and Responsibility experience featuring the Memphis Buddy program.

Videoconferences with national guests, appearances by local leaders and national experts, and a challenging scenario thinking project will round out the year.
