Friday, May 1st –
Saturday, May 2nd 2026

As we launch the second annual Chaminade Leadership Summit, we proudly continue a tradition of empowering leaders who embody purpose, service, and collaboration.

This year’s theme, “Connected Leadership”, invites us to explore the essential role of authentic relationships, shared vision, and interdependence in creating meaningful and lasting impact. As our world grows ever more interconnected, so must our leadership—grounded in empathy, enriched by diversity, and strengthened through community.

CLS 2026 Will Feature:

  • Compelling Keynote Speakers sharing real-world experiences in leading through connection, trust, and purpose.
  • Deep-Dive Panels examining the intersection of leadership, technology, faith, and global citizenship.
  • Hands-On Workshops designed to build critical skills in communication, collaboration, and values-based leadership

Extending the Experience

CLS isn’t just an event—it’s a catalyst for transformation. Attendees will gain access to an exclusive resource hub, featuring content from presenters and Chaminade’s own thought leaders, to support continued learning and leadership development throughout the year.

Growing a Living Network

CLS 2026 deepens our commitment to cultivating a thriving network of changemakers. Whether you’re an alumnus, educator, student, or friend of Chaminade, this is your opportunity to engage in ongoing dialogue, mentorship, and shared mission—all anchored in the Marianist spirit of community.

Join us for this two-day experience, May 1-2, 2026, featuring more than 30 tracks across diverse professional and personal development topics. Together, we lead better when we lead connected.
