A staffing agency is hosting an event on leadership next week.

Express Employment Professionals of Grand Rapids, or Express Pros, will host the 10th-annual Express Leadership Summit on Oct. 30 from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

The event will take place at The Pinnacle Center in Hudsonville, at 3330 Highland Dr.

“This inspirational learning event highlights the power of great leadership and gives participants new insights on how to refresh, energize and motivate the people they lead,” Express Pros says on the event's web page.

Each year, about 200 business, nonprofit and human resources leaders and their teams participate in the summit, according to Express Pros.

It will be hosted this year by two individuals from Express Pros of Grand Rapids: Lorraine Medici, director of training and development; and John Keuning, director of manufacturing excellence.

The summit will feature various speakers and panelists.

The two keynotes are titled “Ten More Steps: How to Motivate Your Team to Excellence” and “Blind Spots: Conquer Misconceptions Holding Leaders Back.”

The panel discussion is called Culture Innovators: Stories From The Front Lines.

Professionals working toward Society for Human Resource Management and HR Certification Institute credentials can earn four credits by attending the event.

Tickets are $60, and proceeds benefit Mel Trotter Ministries in Grand Rapids.
