Leadership Franklin County to Host Leadercast Event May 15
April 26, 2018
FRANKLIN COUNTY, PA – Leadercast is the world’s largest one-day leadership conference and Leadership Franklin County will host a re-broadcast of the annual event on May 15 at Shippensburg University, sponsored by Summit Health.
The theme of this year’s conference is, “Lead Yourself.” What does it look like to lead yourself? How can you intentionally develop your own leadership skills and style? What qualities do you hope to embody as a leader? In 2018, the Leadercast stage will highlight leaders who will answer these questions and explain the power and importance of leading yourself first so you can lead others well.
For years, Leadercast has brought people together and equipped them to become better leaders, managers, community members and employees. Here is what people have to say about Leadercast:
“With a constantly impressive lineup of speakers and the on-target themes year-over-year (and at such a value), I consider Leadercast a ‘can’t miss’ event,” Kalpana Oommen, Vice President Talent Acquisition, Cox Enterprises & 9-year Leadercast attendee.
“For me, it’s a re-charge. For one day I can plug-in, focus on me - my impact, obstacles and growth opportunities. I love that it is not only a lecture but it’s an immersive experience that keeps me engaged…by a multi-sensory approach,” Patrick Williams, Marketing Director, SunTrust Bank.
In addition, the event will include local presentations by Summit Health and Kim Crider of Take Shape for Life.
