WCAGLS14: Joseph Grenny, The Art of Crucial Conversations
Many times conflict arises not because of what someone said, but because of what they didn’t say. In this talk from the 2014 Global Leadership Summit there are many good points to help you and the people around you.
Saul the Sorcerer
It might sound strange to call King Saul a wizard, but when you are doing things to manipulate God’s power, that is the exact class you fall into.

WCAGLS14: Bill Hybels’ Opening Talk
Here are my notes from the opening session at the Willow Creek Association Global Leadership Summit. It was Bill Hybels and it was a good talk. After this my word of the day was QUEEN-FREAKIN-MARY although I was convinced that I was going to slip at some point.
