“Find out where God is working–and join Him!” -Patrick O’Neal
One of the most humbling aspects of building a community where your product is leadership development, is when outside entities recognize who you’ve become in the process and trust you to share your wisdom with their own communities. Although Life Leadership CEO Chris Brady has built an incredible reputation as one of the best communicators inside of Life Leadership, his skills have also been recognized around the world by countless executives, experts, and leadership gurus. Because of the credibility that Brady has developed over the last twenty-plus-years, he has been asked to speak around the globe on how to create a true leadership culture of excellence.
Chris Brady Speaks at Triangle Transformation Luncheon in Raleigh, NC:
Recently, a group of businessmen and women came together in Raleigh, North Carolina, to discuss the potential to change the direction of the cultural decline in the Triangle Area. The Beacon Catalyst Group (BCG) asked Chris Brady to come in and interpret the meaning of one of the five vital pillars that cover how to effectively impact the marketplace with truth. Those in attendance were of the utmost influence in their local and regional communities with many different backgrounds and expertise. Under the canopy of “Triangle Transformation,” key professionals from across the country flew in to speak about the importance of a Biblical Worldview, Life-on-Life Discipleship, Authentic Stewardship/Generous Living, Leadership at Work, and Legacy Leadership.
BCG Mission
TO SERVE CHRIST BY SERVING OTHER LEADERS AS A CATALYST FOR THE UNITING, EQUIPPING, AND MOBILIZING AWAKENED CHRISTIAN LEADERS IN THE TRIANGLE AREA OF NORTH CAROLINA AND BEYOND.
As is customary of the Life Leadership Founders, Brady did not accept the invitation just to go over a couple of points and strut his reputation. On the contrary, as soon as he was welcomed to the stage, Chris Brady dove head-first into some invaluable and enlightening leadership principles. As the very mission of the Beacon Catalyst Group aligns tightly with that of Life Leadership; the topic at hand was obviously second nature for Brady–as he craftily helped his listeners understand the true meaning of leadership development.
Beginning with the very definition of authentic leadership and its impact on the world around us; Brady wove together the foundational concepts that his and Orrin Woodward‘s New York Times Bestselling Book, Launching a Leadership Revolution, explains in detail. In typical Chris Brady fashion, there wasn’t a moment that he didn’t capture the interest of the audience–as he took them through jokes, stories and examples to highlight the competence of the Trilateral Leadership Ledger, as well as the power of the Five Levels of Influence. Pens were racing across the note-taking booklets provided in an attempt to grab every nugget shared. As an added measure of fulfilling the intention to affect true change in the local area, Chris Brady brought along enough Launching a Leadership Revolution books to get at least one copy in every person’s hand before they left.
“God doesn’t call the capable. He doesn’t call the most gifted…He enables and He equips those whom He calls.” -Chris Brady
Throughout the afternoon, every one of the featured speakers touched on how to effectively implement the life lessons that they were teaching. After each talk, there was an allotted time to simply sit and think through how one could apply what they were learning. To take this yet a step further, Chris Brady threw out some self-evaluating questions to consider as he was teaching each concept. His message was clear that, in the end, the only person that can change you is you. As much motivation as one receives from others on a daily basis, true leadership is shown when one inspires others to create the correct habits, discipline and consistency needed to produce a real difference throughout the remainder of their lives.

I am very thankful to Chris for his character-driven leadership in both the corporate setting and his personal life example. The LLR book continues to be a great reference book for leadership lessons that I am learning on a daily basis.
Thanks Chris, it’s great to have your example to follow.
Luis Ortiz says
This is a great example of the “Life Leadership Difference”. As stated in the article “true leadership is shown when one inspires others to create the correct habits, discipline and consistency to affect real difference throughout the remainder of their lives.” I am inspired by all current and emerging leaders of the Life Leadership engine. I am grateful for the opportunity to be exposed to a higher standard of excellence, for learning the difference between positional leadership and roll-up-your-sleeves-lead-by-example leadership. Mr. Brady is leads by example and passionately helps, teaches and coaches others to develop the skills required as we aim to become a much needed source for good in our communities and nations. #lovelifeleadership

Woodward and Brady’s overwhelming best seller Launching a Leadership Revolution has changed my life, income, relationships, confidence, leadership and even my legacy.
For leaders, this book can not be promoted, read and re-read enough.
Forever grateful!

Thank you Chris Brady for choosing the HIGH ROAD A long time ago!!! and for taking your calling seriously!! you are a HUGE BLESSING in our life!!! Proud to be part of LIFE LEADERSHIP!!!
Tina Abernathy says
Launching a Leadership Revolution begins as an inside job. I’ve always believed that if I wanted to see change in something I had to belong to that something first. Yet, I am not so certain I believed that the real something to change was me. Life leadership has helped me realize that to lead is to lead me and by doing so I invite others to do the same.
Thanks Mr Brady and Mr. Woodward for Launching a Personal Leadership Revolution first and inviting me to do the same.
Onward and Forward to 1 million and beyond!!
Michelle says
Sounds like a phenomenal event and I’m sure Chris Brady himself acted as a catalyst for those thought leaders to advance their own leadership thinking. The LLR book is a reference that I’ve read multiple times and the Trilateral Leadership Ledger is a tool that I repeatedly reference in my own leadership growth journey to map progress. Thanks Chris Brady for adding value in your local community and in helping to equip Christian leaders around the globe.
Elaine Mallios says
