Employment Company in Thousand Oaks Hosting the Ninth Annual Leadership Simulcast

Thousand Oaks, Calif. - Express Employment Professionals, an employment company in Thousand Oaks, is hosting its annual Refresh Leadership Simulcast, a nationwide leadership event featuring Secretary of State Gen. Colin L. Powell, USA (Ret.), and former president of Adidas North America, Mark King, and author, speaker, and Paralympian Josh Sundquist.

Back for its ninth year, the Refresh Leadership Simulcast attracts more than 9,000 attendees annually throughout the U.S. and Canada. The event focuses on how leaders can reach the next level, inspire their people and become more effective in their role. This free leadership training event will be on Wednesday, Oct. 24 at the Camarillo Ranch Foundation. Registration and breakfast begins at 8 a.m. and presentations beginning at 8:45 a.m.

King kicks off the event with “Lessons in Leadership: Competing with Creativity.” This innovation expert is the former president of Adidas North America, and challenges leaders to inspire a workforce of creativity and confidence to create things consumers won’t believe are possible.

The lineup continues with Gen. Powell who served as the Secretary of State from 2001 – 2005 under President George W. Bush. Drawing from his experience as a leader on the world stage, Powell will illustrate what it takes to be a successful leader, particularly in times of great change and difficult crises.

Rounding out the lineup is the dynamic Sundquist. This humorous and inspirational Paralympian is known for his ski racing training motto: 1MT1MT, one more thing, one more time. This phrase refers to what leaders can do to elevate their performance in sales, customer service, quality improvement, leadership and more. Sundquist’s goal is for the audience to walk away from his motivational presentation with a fresh perspective on everything they have to be grateful for, resolve to overcome whatever challenges they face and a commitment to do one more thing, one more time to reach their potential.

“We are proud to present this exciting opportunity for business leaders from throughout our communities,” said Neil McMillan, the Thousand Oaks Express franchisee owner. “Each speaker in this year’s distinguished lineup will share their insights and experience on what makes great leaders. Express has a strong presence in Thousand Oaks, and we are pleased to offer the Refresh Leadership Simulcast as a way to give back to the business community.”
