April 1, 2025 @ 09:30 - 10:30

Looking back on 40+ years in the industry, what advice would I give my younger self?
-
Plan for the journey; it won’t be a straight path but know where you’re headed.
-
Build your dream team; you can’t do it alone; have a strong No. 2, 3, and 4.
-
Don’t bank on your agency as your pension, or you might be working until you’re 80.
-
Enjoy the ride! Agency ownership is a privilege (and occasionally, a delight).
Join Jonathan Leafe, a veteran agency founder, mentor, and entrepreneur, as he shares battle-tested insights from decades in the industry.
