CMLA Mortgage Leadership Program (MLP)

The CMLA Mortgage Leadership Program is dedicated to identifying and cultivating the next generation of industry leaders. This year we have completely revamped and reimagined the program to provide participants with hands-on executive-level training sessions designed to give you the skills needed to move to the next leadership level in your career, and will include all aspects of leadership skills. Some of the skills we will cover in the sessions include goal setting, personality profiles, company culture, how to have difficult conversations with your team, public speaking, relationship building, presentation skills, and networking skills.

We have also expanded the program to run from October 2023 through August 2024, culminating in the Annual CMLA Convention! We will also be offering this program in a hybrid format so members from Colorado will be able to participate.
