About The Lee Institute

The Lee Institute is a nonprofit organization that serves people, organizations, and the community through leadership development, design and management of collaborative projects, support of community collaboration, and citizen involvement. Founded in 1997 in honor of corporate and civic leader Bill Lee, the organization is built upon his support of civic leadership and collaborative initiatives.

The Lee Institute is part of the Lynnwood Foundation, which is a non-profit organization established in 1996. The Lynnwood Foundation also maintains the Duke Mansion, a historic inn and conference center.
