​Attendees will Enjoy:

​Pink Carpet Experience. Every attendee will have access to high-end, professional photography from their arrival
​Vision Casting Workshops - Attendees will participate in Vision Casting Workshops at the start of the gathering
​High-Impact Panel Discussions w/ Curated Resource Materials & Swag - These are not just gifts; they are "goodie bags" designed to provide the tools necessary to realize the potential discussed during the panels
​And as if that's not enough....

​This gathering is more than an event— this is a "working" event where attendees don't just receive inspiration, but leave with specific, professional deliverables.


​What's Included:

​Your registration is more than a seat in the room; it is an investment in your 2026 blueprint. We have curated a 'deliverable-heavy' experience where every attendee walks away with:

​• The 2026 Strategic Vision Blueprint: Practical tools from our opening workshop to guide your personal and professional growth.

​• Professional Pink Carpet Assets: High-impact digital photography to elevate your personal brand visibility.

​All materials and workshop tools are fully included in your ticket price, ensuring you leave the Georgia Banking Company with the concrete resources needed to move your Vision Forward!

​We highly recommend the VIP Experience for those seeking 'inner circle' time with our honorees and a robust executive toolkit—including signed literary assets from Dr. Jeri Godhigh herself—designed to ensure your vision moves forward long after the event concludes.

​Think of this event like a high-end masterclass rather than a standard awards event. Instead of leaving you with just a memory and a meal, this masterclass provides the the toolkit, and the professional brand assets—ensuring that the investment you made at the door pays dividends the moment you get back to your desk.

​This working event is a platform where visionaries, entrepreneurs, and changemakers come together to uplift each other and magnify their impact.
