LIVE2LEAD is an annual leadership development experience hosted by Certified Maxwell Leaders to audiences all over the world via simulcast.

Attendees learn from world-class leadership experts in various industries, gain new perspectives on relevant topics, and leave prepared with practical tools to maximize their leadership abilities and trajectories.

This year's event will take place at RE/MAX's Riviera Theatre, offering an immersive, big-screen visual and surround-sound audio experience. Sit back in comfy chairs and experience the simulcast dynamically.

We are also expanding the length of the day from last year to include interactive training to put what you’re learning immediately into action. Plus, there will be lunch and networking to grow your influence.

Individual seats will be sold, and seating will be first come, first served. If you’d prefer to sit with others, there is the option of a group of four or sponsorship.
