We are all constantly bombarded on every side with noise and messaging, most of which we don’t even ask for. With all of this noise, we can lose sight of what matters most. And what matters most is people. As leaders, we must evolve and change with the culture, but we cannot sacrifice our humanity. Leadercast 2023: Human Intelligence will help leaders embrace that they are ultimately leading people, not simply a company or an organization. Cost is $80 per person for chamber members ($105 for potential members). Ticket includes live broadcast program, lunch, continental breakfast, snacks, refreshments, bag of goodies and prizes. Register by emailing info@alpenachamber.com. Sponsored by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan, Accident Fund Insurance Company, Alpena Power Company, Lappan Agency, and Wolverine State Credit Union. Interested in becoming a sponsor this event? In a world that’s gone digital, leaders need human intelligence. Speakers include:
- Andy Stanley
