This month’s conference features all-Iowa native lineup of keynote speakers
If there’s one thing to remember about this year’s Iowa Ideas keynotes, it’s that these women didn’t hesitate when it came time to take their shot.
On the court — or in life.
This year’s keynote speakers have shown tremendous courage, intelligence and passion on their way to truly impactful careers that transcend Iowa’s state lines.
University of Iowa women’s basketball coach Lisa Bluder and longtime associate head coach Jan Jensen will kick off this year’s Iowa Ideas virtual conference talking about leadership and how they’ve built the UI program into one of the most stable, successful and admired programs in the country.
The coaches will talk about leadership, developing potential, shared goals and navigating adversity — while at the same time having some fun along the way.
“They’ve demonstrated leadership, teamwork and consistency that goes far beyond basketball, and they’ve modeled leadership consistently through the years,” said Gazette Executive Editor Zack Kucharski, who will moderate the conversation. “We’ve watched them help the Hawkeyes show tremendous growth and success at the highest levels, and we’re excited to learn from them.”
Their opening keynote gets underway at 9 a.m. Oct 12.
All Iowa Ideas sessions are free, though registration is required at IowaIdeas.com.
