A brand and growth studio for the intentional business.

Leadership Roundtable

Oct 21, 2026

Intro

The Objective Brand Leadership Roundtable is a private gathering of clients, partners, and industry leaders who share a commitment to building intentional businesses.

Throughout the year, much of our work takes place within individual engagements. This event is an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day, bring exceptional people together, and create space for meaningful conversation around leadership, growth, client experience, and the future of our industry.

More than anything, we want this to be a room where people can be open. A place to talk candidly about what’s working, what isn’t, what you’re wrestling with, and what you’re excited about—with people navigating many of the same things. Egos left at the door. No posturing. What’s shared in the room stays in the room.

As part of this year’s gathering, we’re excited to welcome Jason Wenk, founder and CEO of Altruist, for a special conversation on leadership, innovation, and building companies that challenge industry norms.

 

When: Oct 21st, 2026

Where: Paséa Hotel & Spa, Huntington Beach, California

Invitation only.

Welcome

Hosting an event like this is a pinch-me moment. Objective Brand was started as a modest freelance business. We’ve grown a lot over the past four years, alongside some phenomenal businesses. It’s a real honor to be in a room with people of such high caliber.

 

Growing businesses is our passion at Objective. There’s a beautiful art to building a successful company. It’s truly impressive to witness and to be a part of. It’s a challenging venture that takes a special kind of person to take on the risk, stress, and complexity of running a company.

 

It can also be incredibly lonely. 

 

Running a business like ours provides us with a unique perspective and opportunity to gather like-minded leaders to grow together. That’s how the Leadership Roundtable was born.

 

We’re excited to bring together some of the most talented and kind-hearted people I know.

 

And I’m thrilled to extend an invitation to you. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

John Scianna

Founder, Objective Brand
