Live Learn Lead Returns To Sandy Springs

SANDY SPRINGS, GA -- Leadership Sandy Springs is gearing up to present its popular Live Learn Lead event for 2017.

This year's event will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 9 at Holy Innocents' Episcopal Church.

This year's keynote speaker will be Lee Fisher, president and CEO for CEOs for Cities.

According to the CEOs for Cities' website, the new CEOs are those dubbed as "city change makers." These are the "leaders, planners, mayors, council members, college presidents, bloggers, entrepreneurs, philanthropists, business executives, social advocates, coders, artists, and architects from cities around the country."

The organization touts itself as one that connects these "change makers" with one another so they can collaborate on ideas to bring economic growth and opportunity to their respective cities.

Fisher will discuss how some American cities are bolstering their impact through so-called cluster cities to share research, best practices and innovative ideas. Attendees will walk away with the tools needed to also encourage growth and opportunity while producing collaborative change and economic success.

Networking and heavy appetizers will begin at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $25 for LSS alumni donors and $30 for everyone else.

Holy Innocents' Episcopal Church is located at 805 Mt. Vernon Highway. For more information and to register, visit Leadership Sandy Springs' website.
