Emmanuel Sheppard & Condon Associate accepted to Leadership Pensacola Class of 2021

Michelle Olliff, an associate attorney at the Gulf Coast law firm of Emmanuel Sheppard & Condon, has been accepted into the Leadership Pensacola (LeaP) Class of 2021. Participants are carefully selected for their professional achievements, community commitment, leadership ability and future potential. Founded in the Fall of 1982, LeaP is a 10-month-long program designed to identify, foster, and inspire current and emerging leaders to gain an understanding of the issues facing the Greater Pensacola area and develop the leadership skills necessary to address them.

Each year, the LeaP Selection Committee seeks a cross-section of the community made up of individuals from different career, educational, political, social, and cultural backgrounds. Participants accepted into LeaP are involved in a combination of retreats, day-long seminars, and at least one community project for which the class uses its resources and talents to enhance the Greater Pensacola region.

“It’s quite an honor to be selected to this year’s Leadership Pensacola Class,” said Olliff. “I’m looking forward to the additional education and working with the Class of 2021 to improve our community through the class project.” Leadership Pensacola was created by the Pensacola Chamber of Commerce, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose mission is to drive economic prosperity and enhance the quality of life in Greater Pensacola.
