Plenary Programme

Our plenary speakers are drawn from a variety of backgrounds – church, business, public life and the charity sector.

In 2010, we had six plenary sessions during the three days and drawing on the speakers' expertise, we looked at excellence from many different angles and ask some key questions.

• What is God’s view of excellence? How does this inspire us to operate differently from the world?
• How do we keep going for the long haul, keeping our eyes on the goal and avoiding burn out?
• What are the current issues and challenges within the Christian charity sector?
• Our organisations are made up of people – what limitations does this bring and what additional challenges might we face as we aim for excellence?
