I’ve been to four Willow Creek Summits. This one may have been the best.
Each year, Willow Creek Community Church hosts a leadership conference that is made available as a simulcast all over the world. Typically, the resource persons come from a variety of disciplines. Ministers, authors, professors, business consultants, journalists, therapists, politicians, coaches, etc. This year was no exception. What I like about the seminar is the opportunity to hear from some of the most creative, thinking people in just two days.
This year, speakers included:
Bill Hybels, Henry Cloud, Patrick Lencioni, David Ireland, Carly Fiorina, Gary Hamel, Tim Keller, Jessica Jackley, Harvey Carey, Dave Gibbons, Andrew Rugasira, Wess Stafford, David Gergen, Chip Heath, Dan Heath, Bono, and Tony Blair. An interesting and stimulating two days!
Be sure to check out the resources that are available from Willow Creek Summit 2009. Find them here.
I was privileged to attend with some folks from my church this year; what a great learning experience.
Thanks Dianne– it was a great learning experience. I intend to go next year.
