Monthly Luncheon

The man who spent over 40 years in the inner circle of perhaps the most influential business leader in Kansas City history is ready to visit the Northland and share the secrets on how they did it. Jim McGraw, one of Ewing Kauffman’s closest advisers, will deliver the effective principles of business success that helped him and Mr. Kauffman create a multi-million dollar organization. Sponsored by CommunityAmerica Credit Union, McGraw’s presentation will discuss how to increase sales, drive profits and improve one’s life by developing the skills that were so important to Mr. Kauffman: leadership, empathy and persuasion. McGraw, who oversaw the operations of Kauffman’s original business, Marion Labs, and then served on the Board of the Kauffman Foundation, has now developed the LEAPPAhead Program from those experiences.
