World Business and Executive Coach Summit
Regular readers may recall that last year I shared the details of the the online World Business and Executive Coach Summit (WBECS).
It is happening again and I thought you might like to be made aware of it.
WBECS offers an outstanding professional growth opportunity. It brings together the thought leaders of the coaching world to share their knowledge and experience with practicing coaches.
They have a no cost pre-summit, that is like a series of online TED talks and you can gain a complimentary pass to this here:
The presenters this year are diverse and first rate and include (just to name a few):
- John C. Maxwell: One of the top coaches on the concept of leadership.
- Dr. Marshall Goldsmith: One of the top thought leaders in the field of management and change. He designed 360-degree feedback to help measure change in organisations.
- Daniel Pink – Bestselling Author on The Changing World of Work
- Brendon Burchard – 3 time NY Times best selling author
- Frances Hesselbein – Presidential Medal of Freedom Recipient, Founding President of the Drucker Foundation
- Pamela McLean – Preeminent Authority On Coaching, Transformation Learning and Transition
- Michael Port – the author of the Book Yourself Solid System
- Verne Harnish – Fortune Magazine’s Top 10 Minds In Small Business
- Vishen Lakhiani – Founder/CEO of Mindvalley, Passionate Leader of Global Change
- Darren Hardy – The visionary force behind SUCCESS magazine as its Publisher and Founding Editor
The pre-summit is a ‘must attend’ whether you buy a full ticket or not, as the sessions are very high value, don’t cost anything and are completely sales pitch free.
You only need to register once and you gain access to all the pre-summit sessions live via this link

Many thanks to everyone who shared the quotes above and the other quotes from last week. I know that there are various aspects that can influence if a quote attracts your attention – if you saw the tweet, personal style, if it speaks to something happening in your life at that moment etc.
(For those of you as geeky as I am and wondering what tool I’m using to measure individual RT’s this week I’ve been playing with www.twitonomy.com)
