Marian University will host its seventh annual Transformational Leadership Conference this spring on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Monday, January 19, 2026. We invite all students, staff, faculty, and community members to participate in this exciting, transformative experience.
Online Registration opens November 2025. Walk-in registration is welcomed on Monday.
Check-in opens at 8:15 a.m., the conference begins at 9 a.m., and will end by 4:30 p.m.
Our 2026 conference theme is Dare to Lead. We look forward to aligning conference content, speakers, and outcomes with this theme in a way that honors Dr. King's legacy and enables all of us to grow as transformational leaders.
