Leadership: Seize the Moment Breakfast Meeting

 

Join the Girl Scouts of Arizona and Oxford Leadership Academy CEO and Chairman, Brian Bacon, for a breakfast meeting theme of "Leadership: Seize the Moment" on Thursday, December 10, from 8:00 -10:00 am at the Arizona Biltmore Resort and Spa.

  

It is clear that the ability to "seize the moment" is a common trait of successful people. When confronted by a serious challenge, why do some leaders act decisively and others procrastinate? This event is a unique opportunity for senior leaders to debate these critical questions, which are more relevant than ever in these uncertain times.
