The conference will be held Feb. 27-March 1, 2019, at the Saddlebrook Resort in Tampa, Fla. NSCA’s BLC event brings executives together annually to share stories, learn from other leaders, and hear about new ways to embrace technology and motivate employees.
First-time BLC attendees may apply for a Randy Vaughan Founder’s Award to receive free registration. To qualify, applicants must be in a management or decision-making role. Applications are available at www.nsca.org/awards and due by Dec. 1, 2018.

“The speaker lineup this year is phenomenal,” said Chuck Wilson, NSCA executive director. “Every single person we’ve invited to speak will impact attendees in their own unique ways. We’re hitting on the major pain points we hear about from integrators, helping them turn team members into top performers and create new growth opportunities.”
Attendees are also encouraged to register for the annual NSCA Education Foundation Industry Charity Golf Outing at the Saddlebrook Resort Palmer Golf Course on Feb. 27, 2019.
