About Us

About The Event

Based on the best-selling book ‘Leavers To Leaders’ by Samuel T. Reddy, this conference is to spotlight those service leavers who transition themselves and continue to serve in different capacities. In 2022 we bring you 11 categories under the theme ‘Military To… ‘. This conference is to showcase what has been done and what can be done so other serving personnel, service leavers and veterans can aspire to reinvent themselves because serving does not have to stop.

Topics covered typically include purpose, transition journey responsibilities; tips on how an effective plan comes together; guidance on how they got there (strategic planning) and servant leadership practices to produce measurable results.

The speakers of this conference are all service leavers and served at different level or supported the British Armed Forces.

Theo Paphistis
Theo PaphistisChancellor Solent University

This tip will never grow old. Lack of common sense is the most foolish reason for bad decisions. It might seem blindingly obvious but business is all about common sense. In fact, business is 90% common sense. I apply common sense in all my business dealings.

But common sense is not common. If it were, everyone would have it and people like me would have a lot more competition

Ioana Hardy

I particularly like the life lessons and wisdom that comes through the pages, the growth stages and the practicality of the 7 steps Methodology

Listening to Others is a vital skill for a leader:
"People tell you what you want to hear not what you need to hear".
