Every year we take a team from our church to the Global Leadership Summit.
This Summit is run in Chicago, USA, and then simulcast to an audience of 160,000 leaders in over 90 countries. Adelaide has a simulcast site, which this year was at Clovercrest Baptist Church.
The speakers this year included former US Secretary of State Condeleeza Rice, Bill Hybels from Willow Creek Community Church and others from around the world.
There were speakers that inspired us, such as Pranitha Thomas, an Indian leader who has helped organise the release of over 4000 slaves, and Geoffrey Canada who established schools for the poorest of Harlem, NY.
There were also speakers that taught on leadership skill and capacity. This included some that spoke about receiving feedback on the church's activities and others that spoke on communications and staff management.
I trust that over time the application of the lessons learned will mean greater Kingdom impact in our community.
