About the Leadership Summit:

Forward Leadership Summit is a time for leaders to recharge, reset, and prepare to pivot forward. Many leaders are facing never before seen challenges post the impact of the pandemic. From inflation to recruiting, supply and demand shortages to slumps in sales - leaders are navigating through crucial decisions that can make or break the business. The Forward Leadership Summit offers an opportunity for leaders to come and be empowered by the experts as they find their way forward.

Our leadership summit will feature some of the top leadership experts in the world.

Michael Franzese is a bestselling author and speaker. Born into Mafia life as a second-generation of the Colombo Crime family. Called one of the biggest Mob earners since Al Capone by Vanity Fair and featured in Fortune’s list of the fifty most powerful Mafia bosses, Michael left Mob life behind after meeting his wife and serving eight years of a ten-year prison sentence.

Brett K. Oubre, CEO and the owner-operator of six top-performing automotive dealerships in the Southeast U.S. Since 2013 has been inspiring audiences of people from different life walks to find a way forward—past their circumstances, challenges, and even the excuses which block their great potential from being realized.

We provide solutions for leaders to grow in three key areas:

1. Agility and adaptability: Effective leaders must be able to adapt to both internal and external changes – even if that means working outside of their comfort zone. As a leader, you need to develop a lifelong learning mentality to ensure that you are not left behind by shifts in your industry and can give your business the competitive edge
2. Decision-making: To be an effective leader, those decision-making skills need to be top-notch. Critical decisions affecting your organization on a large scale need to be sound, rational, and solid.
3. Critical Thinking: Leading a business is unquestionably challenging. To be successful, a leader must make a lot of difficult decisions, often under pressure.

This event is ideal for:

• Entrepreneurs
• Leaders
• Pastors
• Managers
• Supervisors
• Emerging leaders and entrepreneurs

Attendees will enjoy powerful general sessions, interactive panel discussions, and networking opportunities. We encourage you to invite your teams and secure your seats because we will sell out! We look can’t wait to meet you at the Forward Leadership Summit
