Any college basketball fans out there? You’re in luck.
On Wednesday, Aug. 28, head coaches Pat Kelsey of the University of Louisville and Mark Pope of the University of Kentucky will join 1,000+ business and community leaders as the featured keynote speakers of the 2024 Leadership Louisville Luncheon, hosted in partnership with the Office of Mayor Craig Greenberg, powered by LG&E and KU Foundation.
“I am so excited that our city is bringing Coach Kelsey and Coach Pope together for the first time to talk about leadership, what it takes to succeed, and a preview of the college basketball season ahead,” Mayor Greenberg said. “This year’s Leadership Louisville Luncheon is going to be the best yet, and I can’t wait to see everyone there.”
This year’s luncheon will bring together leaders from all sectors of the region to build connections and drive positive change for our commonwealth.
In their first public appearance together, the dynamic and engaging keynote speakers will share their insights into how leadership has impacted their coaching careers, and the sense of shared pride collegiate basketball brings to the state of Kentucky.
Continuing a leadership legacy
Since 1988, the Leadership Louisville Luncheon has gathered influential leaders from across the region to come together to drive positive change.
“Now in the Center’s 45th anniversary year, we’re proud to host our signature event which gathers leaders for important conversations around our region’s challenges and how we can come together to build a more vibrant community,” Cynthia Knapek, president and CEO of Leadership Louisville Center, said. “We are thrilled to welcome two new leaders of vital institutions in our state, both that are economic drivers and creators of civic energy.”
