An important component of the EMERGE leadership development program is the assigned Action Learning Project (ALP) in which Fellows create an idea or act on an opportunity around the themes of change and innovation and bring that project back to their own organization.  Projects have ranged from developing partnerships, implementing new programs, to embracing new technologies. Through the action learning process, EMERGE Fellows have the opportunity to strengthen their organization and the people they serve.
