This past Friday, May 10th, I attended the 2013 Chick-fil-A Leadercast. This was my first time attending this event, and I hope it won't be my last. I attended one of the local simulcast location.
This event was started over 10 years ago by John C. Maxwell, as the Maximum Impact Leadercast. Later on, GiANT Impact started running the event, and more recently Chick-fil-A became the major sponsor, hence its current name. I only learned about the event last year.
This Friday, May 10th, I will be attending for the first time the Chick-fil-A Leadercast.
I first heard about this event last year (2012), but wasn't able to attend. This event has been going on since about 2000 under the leadership of John C. Maxwell, I think under the name Maximum Impact Simulcast. A group called GiANT Impact got involved later, and now the event is sponsored by Chick-fil-A, hence its current name.
The event is an all-day event where various leaders give insights on leadership itself. The event is done in Atlanta, then simulcast to locations around the world. So you signup to attend one of those events. Check the website for more on this.
For 2013, the following people will be involved:
Jack Welch
Andy Standley
John C. Maxwell
Mike Krzyzewski
Dr. Henry Cloud
LCDR Rorke Denver
Sanya Richards-Ross
David Allen
Condoleezza Rice
Some of these people I have heard of, others I haven't. Regardless, I look forward to the event.
I'll report back next week on my impressions of the event.
