10.00AM - 11.00AM : PANEL: How Successful Leaders Think
Have you known people who can see the big picture, but have no clue about the details of a situation? Or people who get so lost in the details that they fail to see the locomotive coming down the tracks? Successful leaders learn to think at a range of altitudes. We look for lessons in the actions of great leaders. We should instead be examining what goes on in their heads-particularly the way they creatively build on the tensions among conflicting ideas.

12 Noon to 1:00 PM: PANEL: Great Leaders take Risk
Most leaders wouldn't be where they are today without a chance to grow. Do you take risks on people? Do you give leaders opportunities even when you're not sure they can grow to fill the gaps? You can't build your own capacity, let alone a powerful organization, unless you do. Learn how to take risks on people to let their leadership talent expand
