About the event
Kellogg DFW Alumni Symposium 2026
A Business Conference for Leaders Across DFW
We’re back. And we’re raising the bar.
The Kellogg DFW Alumni Symposium 2026 brings together executives, founders, investors, and operators from across the DFW business community for a half-day conference focused on how people perform, decide, and lead at their best.
This is our largest leadership event of the year and one of the most substantive business conferences in the region. Hosted by Kellogg DFW Alumni, the Symposium is open to all forward-thinking leaders, not just Kellogg alumni.
Theme: High-Performing Humans
In an era shaped by rapid change, advancing technology, and increasing complexity, performance is no longer just about strategy or tools. It is about people.
This year’s Symposium explores the human drivers behind effective leadership, strong judgment, resilience, and sustained execution. Sessions are designed to help leaders think more clearly, lead with intention, and make better decisions in real business environments.
The focus is practical, grounded, and immediately relevant.
