Gary Albrecht, a member of Cole Schotz's Real Estate Department, was selected to become one of the inaugural members of the Bergen LEADS program, a year-long learning and leadership experience for professionals who live or work in Bergen County.  Bergen LEADS serves as a forum for the exchange of ideas regarding the development of public and private partnerships and projects that address critical economic, social and community problems within Bergen County.  Beginning in September 2008, a class of 30 men and women who are aspiring or accomplished leaders in Bergen County will meet to examine issues affecting the well-being of the community, select sharply defined issues for action and develop proposals for policies or projects that will ultimately help make Bergen County a better place in which to live and work.
