Leadership Summit

I am blogging live at the Willow Creek Leadership Summit in Chicago. The next two days will feature leaders from various religious, business and civic arenas including Bill Hybels, Steven Sample, Tim Sanders (Yahoo), Marcus Buckingham and several others.

This morning Bill Hybels, senior leader of Willow Creek Community Church outside of Chicago lectured on "The Leader's Finest Hour." Some of his key points:

• Leaders set the tone for where and how they spend their time except for in moments of crisis in which case, the crisis itself dictates the agenda of the leader.
• True leadership development happens best during times of crisis and challenge.

Lots of great thoughts and ideas which I will share in future posts.
