Join us this March 9, as one of John Maxwell’s Founding Member Team, Dr. Bill Eickhoff teaches leadership principles from John Maxwell’s NY Times best seller, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership.

Everything rises and falls on leadership. It doesn’t matter whether you are parenting, own a business, are an executive, or an employee. Whether you know it or not we are all leading something or someone.

Surprisingly, the hardest person you will ever lead is yourself. What are you doing to develop yourself as a leader? Dr. Bill’s stories and refreshing take on John’s 21 Laws will help raise your awareness of the role leadership plays in your personal and professional success.

Jody Gleason from PBC Education, Steve Craig from Workforce Alliance, and Maureen Wilt from FPL will be our

Florida faces an emerging talent gap and growing need for a highly skilled workforce. Talent has emerged as requisite for any state to compete in today’s global and innovation-based economy. A critical mass of educated workers is a powerful lure for businesses and directly related to higher incomes, vibrant communities, and improved quality of life for all Floridians.

Palm Beach County becomes the third community in Florida and the first urban area to be designated a Six Pillars Community. Local leaders are coming together to try and boost the Palm Beach County economy by tying it to future trends including talent, economic structuring, civic, competitiveness and other major factors that play a role in economic growth.

Join us on Friday February 10th for the second event of our six event speaker series on the Six Pillars To Florida’s Future Growth.

Transforming our existing business base is the key to retention and expansion. Economic development tied to innovation requires a comprehensive understanding of what is necessary and prudent to incentivize business growth. Demands for return on investment have never been greater. Legacy industries contend with pressure from the creative destruction witnessed as new industries emerge. A fluid view of the role of innovation and economic development is paramount.

Areas of focus for the Innovation & Economic Development Pillar include:

• Innovation
• Commercialization
• Entrepreneurism
• Global Trade
• Economic Development
