Our first (ad)venture into a theatre setting.

How do you prepare to attend this event?  In no particular order....

  1. Be on Time
    • registration is between 8 - 8:45am
    • a short welcome address will be on at 8:50am 
    • speakers will kick off at 9am
  2. Be There.  
    • we will ask you to turn off your phone or at least have it on silent (respect for those around you, as well as the time investment in yourself for the day)
      • let the people back at the office know you are in  development day and will get to your messages at the breaks
      • there will be lots of breaks
  3. Be Ready - bring your business cards
    • there will be 300+ people to meet....
    • be open, make new connections
    • plan to do the follow up after the event
  4. Be On - participate
    • there will be time to add your thoughts - in words, in writing and more at the event - don't be shy
    • answer questions
  5. Be All In - take notes
    • there will be a lot going on all day long so taking notes can help you trigger reminders later as you review the information
    • we will provide you with a pen, a journal and a booklight
    • you can also use your tech tools for notes
    • we will send out follow up notes all year long to help you refocus on your learning from the day
Looking forward to having you out at Leadercast on Friday May 9, 2014.
If you have other ideas on how to prepare for this type of session - please share!

Time is ticking.
Have you made a space in your calendar for one day.
One day that will connect you with a world of leaders.
One day that will help you focus on you for a change.
One day that will cost you less than a day of golf - and it will go on, rain or shine!
One day that can make a difference in your life as a leader.
One day that can simply make a difference.  Period.

See you at Leadercast 2014.

It's Simple



Our themes at Leadercast throughout the years have changed.  This one has stuck!
Leadership is about the ability to cut through the clutter - our world it too complex not to.
As leaders we need to focus,
we need to help our teams focus,
we need to make time to connect,
we need to be present,
we need to listen with our ears & our hearts
we need to respond,
we need to act.

Be a leader worth following - join the group already attending Leadercast 2014.

The First Lady 2001-2009 Laura Bush at Leadercast 2014


Laura Bush
First Lady of the United States (2001-2009) Via Exclusive Video Interview

One of the most beloved and admired American First Ladies, for decades Laura Bush has championed key issues in the fields of education, health care, and human rights. She has traveled to more than seventy-six countries, including two historic solo trips to Afghanistan, and has launched groundbreaking education and healthcare programs in the U.S. and abroad. The author of the bestselling memoir, Spoken From the Heart, Mrs. Bush also founded both the Texas Book Festival and the National Book Festival in Washington D.C. Today, as the Chair of the Woman’s Initiative at the George W. Bush Institute, Mrs. Bush continues her work on global healthcare innovations, empowering women in emerging democracies, education reform, and supporting the men and women who have served in America’s military.

Born in Midland, Texas to Jenna and Harold Welch, Laura Bush holds a degree in education and a master’s degree in library science. She taught in public schools in Dallas, Houston, and Austin, and worked as a public school librarian. She was jokingly dubbed “the old maid of Midland” before her 1977 marriage to George W. Bush, “Midland’s most eligible bachelor.” The Bushes are the parents of twin daughters, Barbara and Jenna. 

I am sure there is a great story here, as Mrs. Bush has been able to focus on her passion for books and reading to help change the world for the better.
