LOS ANGELES, July 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Farmers Insurance and the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Library have partnered to develop the Presidential Leadership Program (PLP). PLP is a leadership development course built on the concept of emotional intelligence and designed to create a new kind of leader: one who guides with an open mind instead of an iron fist.

"In this fast-paced world, filled with technology, leadership will be key in management of all corporate and non-profit organizations. PLP is designed for America's future."
