Missouri Bar Leadership Institute 2020

Missouri Bar Leadership Institute 2020
CANCELLED - The Missouri Bar takes the safety and well-being of its members and the public very seriously.   We are temporarily suspending in-person events.  As a result, the 2020 Missouri Bar Leadership Institute is cancelled.

The Missouri Bar is excited to host the second Missouri Bar Leadership Institute to help Missouri lawyers even better lead their legal communities.  Over the course of two days, we'll have networking and programming opportunities aimed at providing you and your organization's incoming leaders with tools and advice from others who have been in your shoes.
MO BLI is designed to provide training to incoming and current leaders of local and specialty bar associations and build collaboration and camaraderie among all bar organizations in Missouri.
