One of my favorite days of the year is the first Friday of May. For 10+ years this has been the date for one of my favorite leadership training events, Leadercast. Every year I come away inspired with a notebook full of new insights to help me grow and successfully overcome the challenges that leaders face.
Make sure you take part in this event! Join more than 125,000 leaders from all around the globe on Friday May 5th. The year’s theme is, “Powered By Purpose”. This event will inspire you and encourage you in your growth as a leader and a person. You will learn at the feet of leaders who are known around the world for their accomplishments and leadership abilities.
This one-of-a-kind event will be broadcast live from Atlanta and simulcast into communities across the globe.

Last year they added a second day for locals called Leadercast Labs. This event is held on Thursday preceding the big event. It is a much smaller and intimate gathering here in the Atlanta area near the site of the event. To learn more about this great learning experience check out the information page here: Leadercast Labs
Over the next couple of weeks I will share my notes from past events to provide a taste of what to expect at this year’s event.
I have included the speaker’s list and schedule for your review.
