The LeadersConnect Breakfast Series has been held monthly for the past three years. This year it is co-hosted by the Ann Arbor IT Zone and the University of Michigan Business School's (UMBS) Management Series

• The LeadersConnect monthly presentations draw heavily from authors from the UMBS Pressing Problems book series published by Jossey-Bass.
• The presentations consist of remarks by the speaker/author for half the time and smaller group discussion the second half of the presentation.
• The authors are available to sign copies of their books at each presentation.
• The UMBS Pressing Problems book series currently has 11 published volumes and several more are in production or in the final stages of the editing process.

Quotes from participants:

"I always look forward to these meetings. They provide me with one of the few places where I feel 'gotten' by my peers in the business community."

"Surprisingly, I learned more about solving my problems by listening to others talk about their problems."

"An amazingly rich resource, the one thing on my calendar that doesn't get rescheduled."
