Abstract
With the retirement of baby boomers (born 1946–1964) looming, considerable discussion and research has been conducted into succession planning and the educational impact from the loss of these leadership skills and experiences in community colleges. To prepare for this eventuality, many community colleges have begun Grow-Your-Own (GYO) leadership development programs (Reille & Kezar, Citation2010; Robinson, Sugar, & Miller, Citation2010). This article describes the experiences of two individuals who participated in a GYO leadership development program and offers practical considerations for community colleges that have or are planning GYO leadership programs.
