ABOUT
Leaders EMERGE here. This immersive leadership retreat puts the spirit of a future business leader front and center. FBLA members will learn to lead with passion, purpose, resilience, and integrity.
Being a leader is no easy task. It requires strong knowledge, skill, and humility. Leaders are those that we look to for direction, inspiration, and unity.
Learn to Lead allows students to develop their leadership abilities through practical experience, personal reflection, and collaboration with mentors and peers. This high-energy, interactive journey allows members to unleash their inner leadership skills, engage with FBLA members, and "learn to lead" through group trainings and workshops with business professionals.
Learn to Lead is a collaborative leadership journey presented by factor 110 for our state FBLA affiliates. Learn to Lead is offered in-person only.
