I hope you found my Summit talk stimulating - now I'd like to hear from you. I've posted some process questions and am hoping to get a discussion started around each one. I'll check back often and throw in any comments that I think might be helpful. You can also find resources and information about a workshop I'll be doing.

Your Responses to Session 3!

Here are some of the comments we've received by text or email...

 "Why are the only women featured interviewed? Why don't they speak in their own right?"

"Invaluable! Speakers are so genuine, vested, compelling. I'm open to learning, these fundamental concepts will carry over to all parts of my life!"

"Just wanted to thank Ms. Wendy Kopp for unapologetically standing up for what she believes in and sticking with it! You are an inspiration and a role model!"

"Bill, Have you ever considered running for president? This country needs more men like you in leadership."

 

Here are some responses we've encountered in the blogosphere...

"My highlight of the day was when Wendy Kopp spoke about how her idea for Teach for America began to take root. Her target group for workers: college seniors from elite universities. This idea came out when she was a senior at Princeton University. Her advisor thought she was crazy. These students generally graduate to six-figure salaries and she was trying to recruit them for a salary nowhere close to that. Here was my first thought about her idea: genius."

"I really enjoyed this interview format. I was very impressed with Wendy Kopp's leadership style. Some key takeaways for me were to be relentless in my leadership and have a sense of urgency."

Wendy showed me how important conviction is when we are pursuing our calling. She totally believes in the calling the God puts on her. I have been blessed by her sharing. Thank you.
