Leadership Connections
Event Description
In an era when traditional leadership approaches fall short, this engaging and interactive session reveals the powerful intersection of joyful leadership and organizational success. Drawing from real-world examples and evidence-based practices, discover how inspired leadership directly impacts several key outcomes—from employee retention to bottom-line growth. But don't just learn it; practice it! This session was one of our highest-rated workshops from the 2025 ALP National Conference in Fort Worth, and we can't wait to bring it to all of our members virtually!
Moving beyond conventional leadership theory and antiquated approaches, this session provides actionable strategies to transform your leadership style from effective to truly inspirational. We'll work together through a variety of activities to identify powerful personal leadership attributes and learn how to create an environment where people excel, teams thrive, innovation flourishes, and results follow. You'll gain knowledge, strategies, practical tools, and the confidence to become the leader who not only drives performance but inspires lasting positive change in your organization.
