10/23: Memphis Signature Speaker Series Virtual Event featuring Scott Mann

Join us VIRTUALLY on Friday, October 23, for a powerful morning with Lieutenant Colonel (Retired) Scott Mann, former U.S. Army Green Beret with combat tours all over the world including Colombia, Iraq, and multiple tours in Afghanistan. He is a warrior storyteller, bestselling author, and President and founder of Rooftop Leadership, where he shares the rapport-building skills he learned in Special Forces to help today’s leaders make better human connections when stakes are high and trust is low. In the same way he empowered local tribes in Iraq and Afghanistan to make transformative decisions using very few resources, Scott teaches corporate leaders and their teams the relationship-building techniques that drove so many of his successful combat operations.

Scott is the New York Times bestselling author of Operation Pineapple Express and #1 International bestselling author of Game Changers, Going Local to Defeat Violent Extremists. His current bestseller is The Generosity of Scars: How Your Stories of Struggle Can Change Lives–Especially Your Own. Scott also is a playwright and actor in his recent play brought to film about the Afghan War and the unforeseen cost of war on our Veterans called Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret, which is available on Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, AppleTV, and VUDU.

Scott is founder of Task Force Pineapple and the 501c3, Operation Pineapple Express Relief. He also is founder of the 501c3, The Heroes Journey, where he is dedicated to helping veterans and military families find their voice and tell their story as they transition out of military service in order to bridge the civilian-military divide.

During his presentation, Scott will share some of his warrior stories and explore what it takes to build trust, strengthen relationships, communicate when the stakes are high, and lead people through uncertainty. His approach centers on something simple but increasingly rare: genuine human connection. So, whether you lead or simply want to become a more effective communicator, this event will offer practical insights for building trust, inspiring action, creating lasting change, and forging authentic human connections again.
