Join Legalweek for a special interview with Eli Manning, two-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback and two-time Super Bowl MVP, whose career is defined not only by championship success but by the discipline, grit, and collaborative mindset that enabled him to lead under pressure and elevate the performance of those around him.
In this candid conversation, Manning will reflect on the defining moments of his journey, from setbacks to championship victories, and share the leadership principles that guided him through each stage of his career. He will discuss the importance of tenacity in the face of uncertainty, the role of trust and communication in building high-performing teams, and the lasting impact of mentorship both received and given. Manning will also explore how leaders can adapt, thrive, and continue to mentor others – even in an organization with varying leadership styles -- turning those differences into opportunities for growth and stronger team dynamics.
Attendees will gain insights applicable far beyond sports: how to lead with steadiness, inspire confidence in others, and foster environments where teams can flourish. This is a rare opportunity to learn from a leader who has navigated intense scrutiny, delivered in critical moments, and remained grounded throughout a celebrated career.
