Chantal Brodrick named as Moderator of IHRSA Women’s Leadership Summit

October 22, 2018

The International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association (IHRSA) has announced that Chantal Brodrick, host of the Fitness Business Podcast, will be the panel moderator for the IHRSA Women’s Leadership Summit, hosted by Athletic Business, on Thursday 8th November in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA.

Brodrick (pictured) will be the first Australian to moderate this event and brings extensive experience as the host of the Podcast since its launch in 2015. She is well known as the facilitator of the FILEX Business Summit over the past two years and also hosted the New Zealand Exercise Industry Awards in 2017 - a role she will repeat in November 2018.

Commenting on her role at the IHRSA Women’s Leadership Summit, Brodrick stated “I am honoured to moderate this important event. I strongly believe in showcasing successful women in our industry.

“The IHRSA Women’s Leadership Summit will offer aspiring leaders in the fitness industry the opportunity to strengthen their network, develop powerful communication skills, and learn from a community of successful women.”

“The two panels, which include Stephanie Coulon, Helen Durkin, Sandy Franco, Trina Gray, Jill Kinney and Michele Melkerson-Granryd, will share their extensive experience with the audience.

IHRSA President and Chief Executive Joe Moore explains “the IHRSA Women’s Leadership Summit has consistently been one of the most highly regarded sessions at IHRSA’s Annual International Convention and Trade Show.

“We are thrilled to bring this event to AB Show for the first time to give more women the opportunity to learn from and connect with women who are making a lasting impact on the fitness industry and business world.”

The IHRSA Women’s Leadership Summit, hosted by Athletic Business and sponsored by Club Automation, SportsArt, and Stealth Wellness, offers a valuable opportunity for women in the fitness industry to strengthen their network, expertise, and influence. The $129 registration fee includes the full IHRSA Women’s Leadership Summit program, an AB Show Expo Pass - including admission to the expo, early-morning workout, and AB Show Keynotes - and the AB Show Welcome Reception on Thursday night.
