Why Should You Attend?

Leadership Convention is the ultimate event for anyone wanting to immerse themselves in talks from top API leaders. Read on to learn more about benefits for attendees and sponsors.

ATTENDEE BENEFITS

Open to all leadership levels

There shouldn’t be a one-size-fits-all approach to leadership. Regardless of your experience level, our programming is tailored to suit seasoned, brand new, and even, “maybe in the future” leaders.

Go beyond your own expertise

Our lineup features API speakers from all different backgrounds. Not only will you learn about professional development or career advancement, but we’ll also dive into topics around DEI, civic engagement, LGBTQA+, working with disabilities, and more.

Get a motivation boost

Our conference is notorious for helping attendees develop new ideas for the workplace. Return to your team with new tools, valuable connections, and a renewed outlook on work to grow your career better than before.

Learn how to train future leaders

Hear experts give examples of ways to help your team develop leadership skills, giving them the confidence to delegate, coach, and even hold people accountable.

Incredible networking and social events

Remote work has kept many of us at home, and although virtual happy hours are nice, there’s no substitute for meeting people in person. We’re excited to welcome everyone back this year to make new connections and catch up with peers.

See what competitors are doing

If you’re attending, chances are your competition will be here too, for the same exact reasons. This is a great opportunity to find out more about their company, and the exact strategies that worked or failed so you can give your business the upper hand.

Valuable educational opportunities

Attract and develop talent

Whether you are part of the Diversity Career Fair, ERG Summit, or speaking at the convention, employers who invest in future leaders are much more appealing to potential candidates.
