About this Event
Speak & Rise
A Private Evening of Leadership, Story & Influence
Saturday, September 19 | Kiln Biltmore | Phoenix
What happens when accomplished leaders stop presenting what they know and speak from what they have lived?
Speak & Rise is an intimate, invitation-only evening bringing together senior leaders, founders, advisors, and investors for a different kind of leadership experience.
Five select leaders will take the stage to share the experiences, ideas, and convictions that have shaped how they lead, and the message they believe matters now.
These are not pitches. They are not polished corporate presentations. And this is not a traditional speaker event.
Each seven-minute talk has been developed through the True Influence Method™, helping leaders distill years of experience into a clear idea others can understand, remember, and act on.
The result is a rare opportunity to hear what sits beneath accomplished leadership: the decisions, defining moments, lessons, and truths that don't usually make it into the boardroom.
What You'll Experience
- Executive talks revealing the ideas and experiences shaping how these leaders think and lead
- Live panel conversation and Q&A that takes the ideas beyond the stage
- Red carpet arrival and photography
- Curated networking with executives, founders, advisors, investors, and other accomplished leaders
- An intimate room intentionally designed for meaningful conversation and connection
Why Speak & Rise
Leadership communication is not simply the ability to speak well.
It is the ability to know what you stand for, articulate it clearly, and give other people something they can follow.
Speak & Rise gives leaders a stage to do exactly that.
No theatrics. No persona. No pitching.
Just leaders with something meaningful to say, and a room worth saying it to.
Who This Is For
Speak & Rise is designed for senior executives, founders, advisors, investors, and influential leaders who value substance over performance and meaningful relationships over traditional networking.
Attendance is intentionally limited to preserve the quality of the room.
