Innovation. Creativity. Art. All are catalysts for change, reinvention, rebranding, reconstruction, and oh, by the way, positive business results. Learn how forward thinking leaders have created partnerships and new initiatives that are reshaping the way creativity is fostered and developed. The result? Positive growth in both business settings and our communities. This riveting conversation between seemingly disparate individuals and the entities they represent will challenge existing paradigms and provide inspiration for positive change on many levels. Following the theme “Defining Leadership,” the series will explore the various ways that leadership in our area has been, and possibly will be, defined. What has worked? What models have failed us? How have individual leaders risen above challenging circumstances and led with integrity? How could innovation and creativity redefine our perception of leadership and the health of the region in the future? Attendees will hear from a diverse range of speakers as they offer their experience and perspective on these important questions. Highlights of the program include:
• Top quality presenters
• Delicious breakfast
• Networking
• Learn about Leadership Oakland
