Our Vision

We envision an inclusive, thriving Texas where Hispanic leaders are at the forefront of innovation, advocacy, and transformation.
Our goal is to build a robust community of empowered Hispanic leaders who are equipped to create meaningful, lasting change in their organizations and communities.

Why It Matters

Hispanics represent a significant and growing portion of Texas — yet leadership representation remains disproportionately low.
Leadership Tejas exists to close that gap by fostering talent, nurturing cultural pride, and investing in the future of leadership.

We’re shaping the future of Texas.
