2026 Simmons Leadership Conference Speakers & Thrive365 Faculty

This year’s speakers—our distinguished Thrive365 Faculty—will not only ignite the stage on March 17 but also guide participants throughout the full Thrive365 journey. Together, they’ll share personal leadership stories, deliver powerful career-building insights, and spark the kind of thought-provoking conversations that define our 2026 theme: The Connected Leader.

Across the conference and throughout Thrive365, they’ll help us explore how authentic connection drives belonging, builds trust, and fuels impact. Attendees will leave energized, empowered, and ready to strengthen their leadership with ongoing learning that lasts well beyond conference day.

Please note, additional powerhouse speakers to be announced soon!
