It’s Time to Lead Different.

The Lead Different Experience is a one-day, in-person leadership event in Omaha, Nebraska, created for business leaders, entrepreneurs, pastors, coaches, and change-makers who are ready to lead with greater purpose, courage, and clarity.

Whether you’re leading a team, building a business, growing a ministry, coaching others, or guiding your family—you’ve likely felt the weight of leadership. You’ve carried vision through uncertainty, shouldered responsibilities, and wondered, “Am I doing this right?”

That’s exactly why Lead Different exists.

This event isn’t just about inspiration—it’s about realignment, refueling, and practical leadership growth. It’s a space to sharpen your vision, expand your thinking, strengthen your faith, and multiply your impact in the places God has called you to lead.

When you step into this room, you’ll encounter more than world-class speakers.

You’ll connect with a community of leaders who understand the pressures you face. You’ll be challenged, encouraged, and reminded of who you are becoming in the process.

This is more than an event.

It’s a sacred space to lead differently—to lead from a place of strength, clarity, and conviction.

I would love to see you there.

— Mike O’Connell & Chad Reelfs
