Look Who's Coming to the 2013 Chick-fil-A Leadercast Greater Lehigh Valley

The next deadline for special pricing for Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce members and Nonprofit Representatives is April 9.  Make sure to get in touch with your Chamber Rep and Leadership Lehigh Valley to enter the right codes for discounts.

It's exciting to be part of the group bringing Leadercast to the Greater Lehigh Valley for 2013.  Best Principled Solutions LLC has helped to spread the word in Chester County, the TriCounty area and Delaware County.  This year, BPS designed the Lunch 'n Learn series for the TriCounty Area Chamber.

Here are some of the statistics to demonstrate the excellent folks who came out last year to become more engaged in being Leader-ful in their communities.

BPS, in conjunction with the Greater Lehigh Valley Leadership Consortium, is in the beta stage of creating a tool that will be used locally to identify these demographics. More importantly, information will be collected to ascertain the specific leadership skill-sets that are needed to support attendees and others in moving forward in their personal and professional lives.

Last year, over 100,000 leaders from 14 countries attended Chick-fil-A®  Leadercast®. In its 14th year, this full day, experiential conference is predicted to reach its largest audience to date.

 “It is one of the single most consolidated sources of leadership that I know of,” said Kayte Connelly, Chief Solutions Officer, Best Principled Solutions LLC, organizer.  “But it goes beyond that. I think this conference, although very focused on leadership, transcends the topic and really shows you how to become more leaderful in your personal lives.  We have a dedicated team designing a memorable experience for the Greater Lehigh Valley on May 10.”

This year our program will focus on the idea of simply leading. Our lives are full of things that we think will grow our businesses and increase our influence. What if there was potential impact in simplifying our lives so that our leadership could thrive? Leading in a complex world requires simplicity to cut through the clutter. This diverse group of internationally-acclaimed authors, leadership experts and practitioners will share insights to help leaders learn how to Simply Lead.
