Aiming to rise above the crowd through innovative leadership in Nashville’s thriving business community?

The University of Tennessee Haslam College of Business invites managers, entrepreneurs, directors, and other ambitious professionals to register for C-Suite Insights (CSI) — a six-month leadership development program that turns rising professionals into the confident + strategic decision-makers that their companies (and careers) need.

Here are six reasons to jump on the opportunity and reserve your place in one of only 30 program positions available:

👀 Gain exclusive insight

Get a step ahead by learning from years of firsthand experience from top executives representing multiple industries (think: tech, healthcare, music, sports, banking, manufacturing, non-profit + more). These execs will share their failures and successes — and the pivotal takeaways they learned along the way.

📈 Build business know-how

Gain a real-world view of business operations that enables you to build high-performing teams, lead cross-functional initiatives, and drive innovation and business results.

🤝 Grow your network

“It’s not just what you know but who you know.” That didn’t become a business adage for no reason. And who better to know on a first name basis than at least a dozen senior executives — plus 29 other Nashville business leader participants. Networking both in + outside the program is a stand-out benefit.

💬 Get individual coaching

Participants take several assessments (including Predictive Index and The Hogan Development Survey) to hone in on their strengths and hard-wired tendencies, and will receive an individual coaching session based on the results.

🧑‍💼 Advance leadership skills

Accelerate your leadership skills by expanding your business acumen and ability to lead. Participants can expect to increase their influencer effectiveness and decision-making prowess.

📊 Benefit from membership

Become a member of the exclusive CSI Alumni Network in Nashville — and grow your circle of influence year after year.

CSI is held in-person every second Tuesday from May 14-Oct. 8 at the Pinnacle Building in downtown Nashville. Interested? The deadline to register is April 15 and spots are limited (so don’t wait).

Use these tips to prepare for severe weather season. | Photo by @kirsten.lee.anderson
Severe Weather Awareness Week has passed, but it’s never a bad time to review what to do when severe weather strikes.

March, April, and May signal the peak of severe weather and tornadoes in Tennessee, according to the National Weather Service. To help prepare for these potential hazards, the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency (TEMA) and NWS offer tips for building a safety plan:
  • Make emergency preparedness kits | Recommended items include one gallon of water per day, per person (three to five days), non-perishable food, flashlights, a battery-powered radio, extra batteries, first aid kit, cell phone charger, and important documents.
  • Have multiple ways to receive weather alerts | Monitor local TV and radio stations and have access to a NOAA weather radio. You can also receive weather notifications by phone, text, or email via MEANS, the city’s emergency alert and notification system.
  • Review safety plans for different types of storms, including tornadoes, lightning, severe thunderstorms, and flash flooding.

From the editor
NPL’s main branch garage is one of my go-to parking options downtown, so I thought I’d pass along this update. The garage’s 7th-floor deck has reopened after closing in April 2023 due to concerns of “structural issues.” Experts determined it could safely open following steel framing work.
