Leadership In Life Institute (LILI)

"While LILI is an opportunity for great personal discovery, it also provided plenty of useful, practical assistance that was immediately applicable to my practice. It was fun, challenging, and helped me sharpen my saw. I'm still unwrapping the many gifts that it blessed me with."
Bryon Holz, CLU, ChFC, LUTCF
NAIFA Tampa local
NAIFA-Florida Secretary/Treasurer

"Although the focus was still on us as individuals, I realized that LILI is about much more than improving our locals. It is all about developing ourselves and our leadership capacity within ourselves. The skills I have learned will benefit be for my lifetime."
