Brought to you by Georgia College & State University Leadership Programs, the Usery Forum on Leadership and Inspire! Series offer a trusted forum on citizen-leadership and pressing issues of the day. For more than a decade, we have brought together a diverse audience of scholars and students, as well as business leaders, non-profit executives, journalists, and public officials. We are Georgia College’s leading voice on leadership and the public good. With a range of dynamic speakers, our events allow participants to gain and share insights and drive positive change—in their lives, in their organizations, and across their communities.
Our partnership packages offer you and your students structured benefits, including immediate value and long-term positioning. With greater scale from virtual participation, our packages showcase your partnership.
