To explore the relationship between leadership development and community capacity, interview data from participants in a 1987 multicounty leadership program were collected and analyzed. Community impacts were assessed using Appreciative Inquiry (AI) to determine impacts on community capacity as defined by community capitals. The findings demonstrate that participants contributed greatly to specific projects from which the community benefited. The impact on capacity as measured by the changes in community capitals is not as strong, in that the participants did not explicitly link the different projects.
