HICKORY, NC | APRIL 26th, 2024
THE 2024 CATAWBA VALLEY LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
"LIFE-GIVING LEADERSHIP"
WHAT IS THE ANNUAL CONFERENCE?
Strong communities need strong leaders. Our community needs YOU to be a strong leader. This is why The Catawba Valley Leadership Foundation (aka "The Foundation") has partnered with local businesses and organizations to host the Annual Leadership Conference — a half-day experience designed to inform, inspire, and raise your leadership.
The goal of The Foundation is to make life better for every person in the Catawba Valley by improving leadership. Why? Because every life in the Catawba Valley is touched by multiple businesses, organizations, institutions and movements -- all of which are made better or worse by their leaders. We want the best leaders because we want the very best quality of life.
The conference is designed to touch on the challenges and opportunities for leaders in every arena, including business, civic and community, healthcare, education, and non-profit.
Join other leaders from the area as we gain wisdom and encouragement for the important task of leading.
This Year's Theme: Life-Giving Leadership
The best leaders step up and take responsibility for moving things in the right direction. These kinds of leaders bring out the best in themselves, their families, their places of work, and in their community. This kind of leadership is life-giving. The 2024 CVLF Leadership Conference will highlight how everyday leaders bring life to their world by taking responsibility for their corner of the world. Join 500+ other leaders from around the Catawba Valley for a time of motivation, insight and lessons on "Life-Giving Leadership."

AGENDA
The Annual Conference is a fast-paced, half-day packed with stories, motivation, and information -- in that order. We find that people are most moved by stories and examples, not by points, keys, principles and power point slides. You'll get some insights on how to lead more effectively, but you'll also gain the motivation to put those insights into practice immediately and in ways that make a real difference.
