About the event

🏙️ Chief of Staff Connect — San Francisco 2026

Presented by the Chief of Staff Network

COSC SF is back — and this year, the conversation goes deeper. This one-day gathering brings together senior Chiefs of Staff who aren't just supporting strategy from the sidelines, but actively architecting how their companies operate and grow.

🎯 This Year's Theme: From Force Multiplier to Builder

The CoS role is evolving. This event spotlights the shift from amplifying leaders behind the scenes to owning the systems, programs, and operating models that move the business forward — driving real, measurable outcomes like revenue growth, cost savings, and organizational efficiency.
