Kansas Leadership Center

Have you ever been inside the Kansas Leadership Center?
It’s a beautiful building on the corner of Douglas and Topeka. As you know, my office building sits between Topeka and Broadway on Douglas. I’ve been staring at this building for a long time but have never been inside. The building looks amazing during the day but it’s even more majestic at night when it glows from within.
I made a friend at the Kansas YP Summit a few weeks ago. She gave me a tour of the building and even let me take pictures. None of my photos are as good as the two photos from the Opus Group above but it gives you an idea of what the inside of the building is like. My pictures really do not do the building justice. You’ll just have to go and check it out for yourself one of these days, if you haven’t already.
This art installation is supposed to mirror the one in the Ruffin building.
There’s a large commercial kitchen where a chef prepares healthy meals for the employees everyday.
Beautiful wood stairs that lead to the second floor.
Here are some pictures of a couple conference rooms.
This is a great collaboration room.
Here’s a picture of the cubicles. All offices have them.
Here’s the second floor kitchen area so you can make yourself feel right at home.
One of the training rooms.
All of the walls are painted with dry-erase paint so you can scribble anywhere.
Another training room on the same floor.
This is the library area between the two training rooms.
They used to let people borrow books but they don’t anymore because some of the books never came back.
The top floor is a blank slate.
I couldn’t get a picture of the auditorium because there was a leadership training in session that day. I grabbed this one from the Opus site also.
The Kansas Leadership Center building is so beautiful, inside and out. I hope that you all get a chance to check it out. Huge thanks to my new friend Amy Nichols for letting me swing by and taking the time to show me around. I really should have taken notes because I can’t remember most of the interesting factoids she told me when I was there. Oh, well. I guess that means I’ll need to have a do-over. LOL.
