Legends & Leaders

Legends & Leaders connects the generations who built, are building today, and will be building the modern media, advertising, marketing and entertainment business. Through interviews, story-telling, intimate dinners with C-Suite executives and large events, we bring the generations together to assure the knowledge of legends is retained and the vision of emerging leaders is shared and respected. We honor those C-Suite executives through the Hall of Legends, which has inducted more than 100 legendary industry leaders from marketers, agencies and media companies. At LegendsLeaders.org, we publish regular video interviews, discussions and profiles with these executives and those who are leading visionary agendas for advancing today’s business.
