What you’ll walk away with

What will you take home from Henley Live?

The day begins over breakfast, followed by an opening session grounded in this year’s theme. From there you move into the breakout sessions you chose ahead of time. After lunch, the whole room gathers for a shared experience, and then you settle into a small sensemaking group with one of our coaches. We close the day together and carry the conversation up to the rooftop for happy hour.

A workbook you’ll keep using

Every attendee works through a full workbook all day, built around real frameworks from Henley’s executive coaches. Bring it back to your office to use with your team or on your own.

One commitment, with a coach behind it

Your sensemaking group helps you turn a full head of insight into one thing you’ll actually do differently, with a seasoned coach holding you to it.

People who get it

Leaders from different industries and companies across the Pacific Northwest, carrying workplace challenges you recognize. Those connections tend to outlast the day itself.

A place to keep going

Lasting access to the Henley Hub, our online leadership community, so the learning continues once we leave the day behind.

Coming back for year two?

Same magic. New surprises.

If you were with us in 2026, you’ll recognize the shape of the day. Everything inside it has been rebuilt for this year.

  • All-new breakout sessions, built around this year’s theme
  • A fresh mix of leaders and perspectives in the room
  • A few surprises we’re saving for May
  • A warm welcome back for returning attendees

Why it matters

Why Henley Live stands out

Henley Live is built to change how you lead on the days after it.

That’s the whole design. Every session is something you can carry back into your work, starting the next morning. And you don’t do it alone. You leave connected to other leaders across the Pacific Northwest who were in the room with you, and to a coach who knows what you’re working on.

Who's in the room

Should I go to Henley Live?

Last May, leaders came from just about every corner of Pacific Northwest work life. Utility crews sat beside hospital leaders, and nonprofit directors traded notes with tech managers and people who built their businesses from scratch. More than half came because a colleague or a coach told them it was worth it.
