Hamilton County Leadership Academy’s Leadership Summit on at the Embassy Suite in Noblesville is the organization’s flagship event each year. The Leadership Summit featured current class projects and celebrated HCLA’s Class of 2019.
Former Indiana State Senator Luke Kenley was the keynote of the event. He will shared his personal stories of leadership and lessons learned throughout his esteemed career serving the people of Indiana.
First elected to the Indiana State Senate in 1992, Luke Kenley brought a unique combination of Hoosier values and experience to the Statehouse. Kenley served as an officer in the Army during the Vietnam War era, graduated from Noblesville High School, Miami of Ohio, and Harvard Law School, and grew a small family business of 20 employees to a larger one of 200 employees successfully. Kenley later sold the operating business to Marsh Supermarkets but kept the properties involved, and now owns and manages a commercial real estate operation in Noblesville. Kenley retired from the Indiana State Senate in 2017.
