We have re-imagined and re-invented our TEMPO Leadership Event this year. We will host our evening event at the Miller High Life Theatre for a fun night out with friends, colleagues and family! Join our pre-event cocktail celebration in the rotunda before entering the theatre for an intimate conversation with Simone Biles.

ABOUT SIMONE BILES 
Simone Biles is one of the greatest female athletes of all-time. The first woman to capture five All-Around World Championship titles, Biles is the most decorated gymnast in World Championships history – male or female - with 25 medals overall (19 gold) and is a seven-time Olympic medalist (4 gold, 1 silver, 2 bronze). A three-time Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year, she has earned the rare distinction of having four skills named in her honor – The Biles – across beam, floor (two) and vault disciplines. Biles’ extraordinary accomplishments have received widespread recognition including TIME 100 Most Influential, Forbes 30 Under 30, Ebony Power 100, People Women Changing the World, USA Today 100 Women of the Century, and two-time Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year among others. Her autobiography - Courage to Soar - was a New York Times bestseller and developed into an award-winning tv special on Lifetime. Biles utilizes her platform to help advocate for mental health and support initiatives that provide education and assistance for children and young adults associated with adoption and foster care.


HISTORY OF THE TEMPO LEADERSHIP EVENT
The Leadership Event highlights women and men in leadership, including their empowering and significant success stories. This event provides an opportunity for attendees to receive inspiration and guidance from women and men in leadership roles as they have navigated the sometimes rocky and uphill battles and offer the perspective from someone who has "been there, done that." The Leadership Event provides an opportunity for attendees to enhance their leadership skills with key takeaways they can bring back and incorporate into how they lead their organizations and the community. TEMPO believes women are the driving force behind successful companies and communities, and through the Leadership Event provides another opportunity to build alliances and discover how other successful leaders have achieved their goals. The annual event provides leaders in our community the opportunity to gather around topics that propel leadership skills to the next level. The event attracts approximately 800-900 business professionals, 85% female, 15% male.
