The Leading Note

Join us for a FREE monthly series of motivational talks featuring remarkable individuals from diverse fields. Discover their strategies and mindsets that drive success—and how to apply them both professionally and personally. In music, the leading note is the final note before the keynote of the scale. Unlike a keynote talk, which represents the main idea or conclusion, these leading note talks explore the path and momentum that guide you there—an ideal metaphor for talks focused on strategies that drive success.
