Once an ICAN Board of Directors Member, always part of the ICAN network! 💚

We recently had the opportunity to reconnect with several former ICAN Board of Directors members to catch up, share what’s happening at ICAN, and reflect on the impact they’ve had on our organization and leadership community.

Our board members are an important part of the ICAN story, and we’re grateful for the time, talent and leadership they’ve shared with us over the years.

We look forward to connecting with even more of our former board members in the months ahead—keeping you engaged, connected and involved in the ICAN network. Are you a former ICAN board member? We’d love to hear from you! Reach out to reconnect and find out what’s happening at ICAN.

The best part might happen after the presentations. 👀

At ICAN’s 7x7x7, the seven speakers are just the beginning.

After hearing seven thought-provoking perspectives, you’ll grab a drink, enjoy appetizers and join a small-group Circle Conversation to dig deeper into the ideas you just heard.

Because great leadership events shouldn’t just give you something to think about.

They should give you people to think with.

Join us October 28 for an evening of learning, dialogue and connection.

What can you say in 7 minutes?

A lot.

At ICAN’s 7x7x7, seven local leaders each have just seven minutes to share an idea, insight or perspective they believe is worth talking about.

That means 49 minutes. 7 powerful voices. Countless ideas to take with you.

Then we’ll keep the conversation going with drinks, appetizers and Circle Conversations with fellow attendees.

Come ready to listen. Come ready to think. Come ready to connect.
