Excellence & Innovation

The road to 100,000 collaborative leaders continues. 📍 Austin | Chicago | Washington D.C. | Phoenix — Oct 2026 We’re uniting cross-industry leaders to explore how to scale excellence—like how one Fortune 50 company empowered 14,000 employees to generate $1B+ in new earnings in just 18 months. Extraordinary outcomes start with ordinary people who choose to collaborate, innovate, and lead with purpose. Let’s go for Extraordinary! 🌟
