On behalf of the entire corporate team, welcome to the 2023 Market America Leadership School. This event represents an important new chapter for our business and also serves as a symbol of the perseverance, dedication, and determination of our global UnFranchise Family.
Leadership School is our first major corporate event since JR’s passing, and while the profound pain of his loss still lingers within us, so does his vision of a better future with prosperity for all. JR taught us all how to see the world through the eyes of an entrepreneur, and Leadership School will teach you how to see the UnFranchise business through JR’s perspective – with the deep understanding, relentless drive, and unwavering focus of an inspired leader.
JR was a legendary leader, not because he created an amazing business, but because he helped people do amazing things. More than anything, JR taught people how to believe in themselves. JR’s remarkable legacy and impact was measured in lives touched and magic moments, and I know he would consider this event to be a magic moment. He loved you, and he loved building this business with you – and together we will carry on JR’s vision.
Before his passing, JR outlined a detailed plan for an event which would take us back to the roots of success by amplifying prosperity through inspired, grassroots leadership. JR’s idea is now a reality with the 2023 Market America Leadership School. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being here with us to make JR’s dreams come true. More importantly – thank you for being here to receive the legendary training JR envisioned!
Leadership School fulfils JR’s dream of providing an interactive and immersive experience in a workshop setting designed to leverage experiential learning. JR believed whole heartedly in the empowering nature of experiential learning because there’s simply no substitute for hands-on, personal experience.
Personal experience is personal empowerment, and MALS2023 will empower and inspire you to create positive change in your life and business. Thank you for being here to learn as leaders and to experience the fellowship and family JR loved so much. Together we will carry the torch of opportunity and light the way for others to follow – because that’s what being a leader is all about. That’s what JR did.
Keep Growing. We Believe in You.
