2012 Leadership Summit

Empowering "Hall of Fame" Economic Development Leaders and Communities

The International Economic Development Council's 2012 Leadership Summit, January 29-31 in San Antonio, Texas, will help economic development leaders catalyze "Hall of Fame" achievements while facing post-recession realities.

In economic development, as in sports, a winning team has to know how the game is played, have a clear strategy to win and the skills to execute it. The most successful economic developers reach their goals by leading high-performing teams of community and tactical partners. The 2012 Leadership Summit is the perfect venue to get coached on the best practices, strategies and leadership tools that help communities maintain their competitive edge.

San Antonio's vibrant, diverse economy grew from a combination of visionary entrepreneurs and the support and encouragement of local economic development professionals. Join us at the 2012 Leadership Summit as we explore ways to empower and inspire the best and brightest economic developers to lead organizations to "Hall of Fame" achievements.

Attendance is limited to senior managers of economic development organizations and Certified Economic Developers (CEcDs).
