Lead Boldly: Empowering the Next Generation of Banking Leadership

Leadership is more than a title — it's about courage, authenticity and the willingness to grow. At the 2025 FLD Leadership Conference, we invite you to Lead Boldly. This year’s theme challenges emerging leaders to step into their potential with confidence and vision. Through inspiring keynotes, hands-on sessions and meaningful networking, you’ll gain the tools and mindset to lead with purpose in a rapidly evolving industry.

New this year, we’ll be joined on Day One by students participating in banking internships from IBA-member banks from throughout the state. This unique opportunity allows future bankers to learn alongside emerging professionals and build connections that support the development of Indiana’s next generation of banking leaders. Whether you’re managing your first team or preparing for the C-suite, this conference will empower you to make bold moves that shape your future — and the future of community banking.
