The Visionary Leaders Legacy Forum presented by Legacy Bridge Family Offices is a powerful speaker series spotlighting executives who are nearing or have recently entered retirement after decades of impactful leadership. Each month, we gather to hear from a different visionary as they share their personal leadership journey, lessons learned, defining moments, and the legacy they hope to leave behind.
This “last lecture”-style experience offers a rare opportunity to reflect on a lifetime of leadership and gain wisdom from some of our region’s most respected voices. Whether you’re an emerging leader or a seasoned executive, you’ll walk away inspired and better equipped to shape your own legacy.
Come learn from the legends who helped shape our business community—and discover how their stories can guide your own leadership path. We’re proud to bring the stories of these visionary leaders to our region. As Jay Byers once said, “We are standing on the shoulders of giants.” This series offers a rare opportunity to learn from some of the most iconic and impactful leaders in the State of Iowa.
