About the Event
Explore how true leadership often arises not from the spotlight, but from the edges—where overlooked voices quietly reshape the center. Just as art mirrors unseen emotions and realities, leadership from the margins reflects resilience, insight, and transformation. Where power and influence truly reside, honoring those who lead through presence, care, and vision rather than authority. In a world obsessed with what’s framed and visible, it is those at the margins who offer the most profound reflections—and the clearest paths forward.
