<\/a>When a Summit speaker makes such a statement, guests typically have one of two reactions. For some they think to themselves, \u201cI can relate. I had a similar experience at a Summit.\u201d<\/p>\n
But for others the response is, \u201cHuh? I\u2019ve never come close<\/span> to that kind of moment. What gives?\u201d<\/p>\n Why the difference?<\/p>\n I\u2019ve learned that if you want to experience the Global Leadership Summit in such a way that is more likely to lead to a transformational moment it all comes down to what you take with you into the event.<\/p>\n Specifically, I believe there are at least 3 vital tools every leader must bring with them to the Summit<\/strong>:<\/p>\n 1.\u00a0\u00a0 An expectation of transformation<\/strong> 2.\u00a0\u00a0 A willingness to wrestle in “real time”<\/strong> 3.\u00a0\u00a0 A team-learning approach<\/strong> There can be many reasons for registering your team for an event like the Global Leadership Summit. Perhaps it\u2019s a team-building exercise, or maybe it\u2019s just for a well-deserved break from the grind of ministry!<\/p>\n But if your expectation is to actually experience growth, change and development, come prepared with these three tools.<\/p>\n Perhaps one day you\u2019ll point to a seat in the auditorium and say, \u201cThat\u2019s the chair where everything changed.\u201d<\/p>\n What have been your transformational experiences at the Summit?<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You\u2019ve heard the comments before at the Leadership Summit. With great flourish a renowned leader points to a chair in the auditorium as he passionately thunders, \u201cThat\u2019s the chair where everything changed.

\nIf you arrive in a posture of expectancy that your world could be rocked, you stand a much greater chance of experiencing one of those “a-ha” moments.<\/p>\n
\nIn each talk, be constantly asking, \u201cDo I agree with this? What is my immediate take away? What will I have to change in my own leadership?\u201d<\/p>\n
\nIn past years, team learning was difficult to work into the fabric of the Summit. But this year there will be more opportunities for you to huddle up with your team for a time of facilitated discussion. Take full advantage of these opportunities!<\/p>\n
