Join some of America's top
entrepreneurs and executives of mid-market firms along with today's top
business authors, innovators, visionaries, and the editorial team at
Fortune Small Business magazine. Our goal is to engage in conversations
with you and your executive team and tap into the collective intelligence
assembled at this year's sixth annual Growth Summit. |
| |
|
The main focus is on how smart
"gazelles" -- small and medium businesses -- are taking advantage of this
once-in-a-lifetime economic opportunity where it's expected that more
market share will change hands in the next twelve to eighteen months than
did in the last several decades. Miss this "black swan" moment and you've
missed the greatest chance in our economic lifetime to restructure your
industry and dominate your competition. This is not a time to hold back,
but to be bold and aggressive and armed with the latest knowledge, ideas
and tools of the 21st Century. |

Four pillars will anchor the content,
mirroring the four decisions that will determine the fate of your company: |
| |
|
People, Strategy, Execution,
and Cash |

|
|
|
People, Strategy, Execution, Cash
-- Jim Collins,
the #1 business thought leader of our time, will anchor the Summit with a
four hour workshop covering his latest discoveries in studying "gazelles"
which were able to both survive and thrive in turbulent times. And his
latest research indicates that turbulent times will likely be the norm for
the rest of our business lifetime, so you better know how the best have
done it in the past. Jim's ideas will span all four key decisions. |

People
-- Aubrey Daniels,
the world's foremost authority on applying the scientifically-proven laws
of human behavior to the workplace, will lead a two hour session on the 13
management practices, common within many organizations, that waste
significant time and money -- and he'll share what to do instead so you
can tap into the additional 40% discretionary effort your people can
choose to give you or not if they are engaged -- the difference between
winning and losing in this new economy. |
|
|
|
Strategy
-- Hermann Simon
is the world's foremost authority on the best "unknown" companies around
the globe -- mostly middle market, privately held (and many family held)
businesses that own significant market share in very narrow niches and
produce substantial profits. During his two-hour workshop he'll share
their strategy secrets along with 33 quick solutions for beating the
current crisis from his over three decades of work with some of the top
world's top gazelle-companies. |
|
|
|
Execution
-- David Allen, the
world's leading expert on personal and organizational productivity, is
recognized as one of the top 5 executive coaches in the world. During his
two-hour workshop he'll share his popular Getting Things Done (GTD)
methodology that has shown millions how to transform a fast-paced,
overwhelming, overcommitted life into one that is balanced, integrated,
relaxed, and has more successful outcomes. GTD's broad appeal is based on
the fact that it is applicable from the boardroom to the living room and
is hailed as "life changing" by entrepreneurs and executives. |

|
Cash
-- Lynne Twist,
named Woman of Distinction at the United Nations and recipient of the
Entrepreneur of the Year Award, has raised hundreds of millions of dollars
to solve humanity's most pressing problems. Her workshop will share the
key secret about money -- the one thing you need to know which will change
forever the way you view, attract, and use money. And she will lead you to
find sufficiency and peace in your relationship with money -- a message
particularly critical in these challenging financial times. |
