Subject: From Small Town to Leading in a Big City

We all have to start somewhere, and often that means having to work our way up from humble beginnings.


David Whitaker, the President and CEO of the Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau, is very familiar with this story. Growing up in a very small town in Georgia, David found the pathway out through a college education, then after landing his first marketing job in Florida, and then moving to Miami. 


He’s now making a difference in the city of Miami, showcasing the strengths of its diversity and wonderful communities. 


In this episode, he takes us across his journey from small town to leading in a big city. David talks about the continuous evolution and growth of Miami, which offers diverse opportunities. And for David, Miami is a great place that continues to provide that. Tune in and find out about the exciting projects and outlooks on the horizon for the city. Join us for this rich cultural exploration through the eyes of a leader as he shares insights on the tourism industry and more in this conversation dropping 2/28/24 on the Leading with Audacious Confidence Podcast.
