CLS Leaders' Summit

October 23, 2026 7:30 AM - 12:30 PM (CDT)

Description


The inaugural CLS Leaders' Summit is on Friday, October 23, from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Distillery Labs.

For more than 50 years, the Peoria Area Chamber of Commerce's Community Leadership School has equipped leaders with the knowledge, relationships and perspective to make a greater impact in their organizations and throughout Greater Peoria. The inaugural CLS Leaders' Summit powered by Maloof Realty is the next chapter in that journey. 

Created as an advanced leadership experience, the CLS Leaders' Summit expands on the foundation of Community Leadership School by exploring the challenges today's experienced leaders face. This isn't a repeat of CLS. It's Leadership 2.0, designed for those who want to sharpen their influence, exchange ideas with peers and continue growing long after graduation. 

Whether you're a CLS alumnus looking to build on what you learned or a leader seeking the same caliber of professional development, this half-day summit delivers practical strategies, meaningful conversations and actionable takeaways in a focused, high-impact format. Your morning includes: 

  • A Networking Power Hour to reconnect with CLS alumni and build new relationships with leaders from across Greater Peoria.
  • A dynamic, featured Keynote with fresh insights and practical strategies to maximize your impact and influence.
  • Your choice of an Expert Breakout Session: 
    • Unreasonable Hospitality in Leadership – Learn how creating exceptional experiences for employees, customers and partners can strengthen culture, trust and performance. 
    • Leading with the Community in Mind – Discover how the strongest organizations intentionally align business success with community impact, creating value that extends far beyond their walls.
  • Your choice of a Collaborative Leadership Discussion: 
    • Leadership Hacks Exchange – Share practical ideas and proven approaches with fellow leaders.
    • The Speed of Thinking – Explore how the pace and quality of decision-making shape leadership effectiveness. 

The CLS Leaders' Summit is intentionally designed for busy leaders. In just one morning, you'll gain fresh perspectives, practical tools and meaningful connections you can immediately apply within your organization and community.

Community Leadership School alumni receive discounted registration. The event is open to all leaders who are committed to continuous growth.
