DESCRIPTION:Leadership matters more than ever. Whether you're leading a com
	pany\, managing a team\, building a business\, or aspiring to become a str
	onger leader\, the ability to develop people is one of the most important 
	skills you can invest in today. That's why the RED Conference is returning
	 to Frisco in 2026 with even bigger plans\, powerful conversations\, and o
	pportunities to learn from leaders who are making an impact far beyond our
	 community. RED is designed to help organizations strengthen their talent 
	pipeline\, develop future leaders\, and create workplaces where people wan
	t to stay\, grow\, and succeed. It's also a day for individuals who want t
	o sharpen their leadership skills\, expand their perspective\, and be insp
	ired to lead at a higher level. And yes\, Mentor Moments will be back. One
	 of the most talked-about experiences from our inaugural conference return
	s\, giving attendees the opportunity to connect directly with local leader
	s\, ask questions\, gain insights\, and build meaningful relationships. La
	st year's conference brought nationally recognized speakers and practical 
	leadership lessons to Frisco. This year\, we're raising the bar. Meet Our 
	2026 Keynote Speaker It is our pleasure to welcome Dan T. Cathy\, Chairman
	 of Chick-fil-A and Founder and Chief Visionary of Trilith\, as our keynot
	e speaker for the 2026 RED Conference. Dan is recognized around the world 
	for his servant leadership\, commitment to developing people\, and ability
	 to build cultures that inspire others to thrive. His insights on leadersh
	ip\, purpose\, and organizational culture will resonate with leaders at ev
	ery level. While many know Dan for his leadership at Chick-fil-A\, his wor
	k through Trilith is equally inspiring. He has helped create a community b
	uilt around connection\, creativity\, and collaboration. Dan often describ
	es Trilith as a place to live\, create\, and play\, reflecting his belief 
	that great communities are built around people\, not simply buildings. Lea
	dership From the Conductor's Podium Joining Dan on the RED stage is Pete H
	azzard\, Managing Director of Fine Arts at Frisco ISD\, an accomplished co
	nductor\, author\, and leadership speaker who brings a fascinating perspec
	tive to the way we lead people and teams. We first met Pete while touring 
	the new Frisco ISD Visual and Performing Arts Center. As we learned more a
	bout his work and the way he translates lessons from the conductor's podiu
	m into practical leadership principles\, we knew his perspective belonged 
	at RED. What can we learn about leadership from the conductor's podium? Qu
	ite a bit. A conductor does not play every instrument. In fact\, they do n
	ot make a sound. Instead\, great conductors create clarity\, establish pul
	se\, build trust\, listen carefully\, and help talented individuals work t
	ogether toward something bigger than any one person could accomplish alone
	. Pete uses that lens to help leaders think differently about communicatio
	n\, coordination\, collaboration\, trust\, and team performance. His messa
	ge also reinforces one of the ideas at the heart of RED: Great leadership 
	is rarely a solo performance. Learn Together. Lead Better Together. You ca
	n reserve one seat\, but RED may be even more valuable when you experience
	 it with your team. Leadership\, like music\, is rarely a solo performance
	. When your team hears the same ideas\, learns to listen differently\, and
	 develops a shared language\, you are better equipped to move forward toge
	ther. Bring an emerging leader\, a manager\, a colleague\, or your executi
	ve team. RED is designed to equip your people with ideas they can put into
	 action immediately and continue discussing long after the conference ends
	. This year\, we're also excited to welcome you to the beautiful Frisco IS
	D Visual and Performing Arts Center\, creating an inspiring setting for a 
	morning of leadership\, learning\, and connection.
