Today I will be speaking at the Annual Student Leadership Conference on campus at Bucknell University. I’ve looked over the conference agenda and there are some very interesting speakers and topics. Folks from Deloitte Touche, Time Magazine, Stifel Nicolaus presenting on sustainability, networking, team dynamics and social engagement. It should be a very interesting day. So, the question I have is why me? Why am I part of this group?
My topic is creativity and innovation. A nice broad topic. Somehow I will find a way to connect the topic to leadership. Are leaders inherently creative? Innovative? Is there such a thing as a Creative Leader? Am I one? I think I’ll let the audience decide.
So again, why me? I will be curious to talk with the conference organizers. Why did they choose this particular group of speakers? Were they looking for different disciplines? Backgrounds? Ages? (Matt Gabler, PA State Representative seems to be the youngest having graduated from Bucknell in 2006 – I have him beat by 30 years!)
I’ll tweet from the event and let you know how it goes. Oh, and I’m also hitting the bookstore – need a new Bucknell coffee mug.
I’m now into my 12th hour (got here at 7:30 a.m.) – hard to believe! We’re moving right along with a logo done, lots of copy written and some of the brochures created. These guys are good!
We’ve also had a lot of visitors. Folks from the nonprofits have been checking in on us and bringing us goodies – thank you! A group of students have also been here from my Advertising class at Misericordia. They had the chance to talk with the professionals here and find out about their careers, ask about the process of creating a brochure or logo, etc. I hope they enjoyed themselves – I know the folks here had fun talking with them.
