WHAT IS INSPIRE LEADERSHIP FORUM?

13 APRIL 2023, 7:30AM-12:30PM PT
Picture
The 2023 TEA INSPIRE Leadership Forum is a pilot event including a presentation and facilitators for small group roundtable discussions on attendee-selected topics. All registrants are senior level executives from companies and/or organizations within the themed entertainment industry who are responsible for leading teams of people and/or hold the ultimate responsibility for their company’s success and culture. Owner and Leadership attendance will be curated to best represent a wide range of industry experience and viewpoints. The small group dynamic immerses the attendee in peer-driven learning and thought leadership, purposeful networking, and a safe, non-competitive environment where attendees can share expertise and challenge one another to arrive at better decisions. Discussion topics will help the vision for future TEA Leadership Forum programming. To preserve the integrity of this peer forum, TEA reserves the right to decline registrants who do not meet the eligibility requirements.

WHY ATTEND INSPIRE LEADERSHIP FORUM?

  • Meet Bob Kodzis, your keynote speaker and facilitator for the INSPIRE Leadership Forum. Bob is a different kind of professional. His thoughtfulness, humor, and intellect will inspire you to unleash your genius! 
  • Prime positioning to impact others and learn from them too - because the room is also the stage, you can bring your authentic voice and perspective to speak directly to a room exclusively of your peers and reflect on your own journey as a leader
  • Planning for the future of your business - reflect on the real-world challenges and emergent global trends impacting themed entertainment business today alongside fellow leaders
  • Collaborative learning - uncover new possibilities and drive conversation into new territories by engaging in multiple opportunities for shared learning
WHO SHOULD ATTEND INSPIRE LEADERSHIP FORUM?​
  • C-level executives and equivalents who are responsible for leading teams of people and hold the responsibility for their company’s success and culture​

THEA AWARDS

15 APRIL 2023, 5:00PM-1:00AM PT

The Thea Awards were created by the Themed Entertainment Association (TEA) in 1994 to help realize a key mission of the association: bringing recognition to achievement, talent and personal excellence within the themed entertainment industry. TEA’s Thea Awards have become internationally recognized as a symbol of excellence.

Rewarding excellence for the creation of compelling educational, historical and entertainment projects, the TEA’s prestigious Thea Awards reinforce the value of experience design and themed entertainment approaches to engaging people worldwide.

The annual Thea Awards Gala is a black-tie dinner and awards ceremony held every spring in honor of the Thea Award recipients. This elegant affair is the culminating event of TEA’s biggest weekend of the year, which kicks off with the newly reimagined two-day TEA INSPIRE program.
