This February, Chief is celebrating Black leaders in our community and beyond through conversations that honor Black history and shine a light on the realities shaping leadership today.

From our keynote with former BET CEO Debra Lee to our nationwide cocktail hours, we invite all Chief Members to come together for connection, reflection, and dialogue.
