Last year Leadership Network broke new ground by doing a completely free, completely online leadership conference called The Nines. At 9:09 on 9/9/09 dozens of leaders began sharing 9 minutes of wisdom via pre-recorded video. More than 20,000 people tuned in.
The format this year is similar, but the videos will be 6 minutes long and the theme is game-changers.
There will be more than 100 speakers including Rick Warren, Michael Hyatt, Ed Stetzer, Alen Hirsh, Len Sweet, and Francis Chan.
One cool new twist is you can submit your own “Game Changers” video, and if it’s good yours could be one of the videos shown.
The Nines takes place 9/9/10. It’s free again, though there are some paid options. You can register here.
Did you participate in The Nines last year? Going to participate this year? If so, which speakers are you looking forward to most?
I did go last year it was amazing! Am registered for this year but with the work schedule not sure how much I’ll get to see. My list is too long to list the speakers I’m looking forward to. Hope to see you there!
Last year I watched and blogged my notes for the first hour or so, and then left the audio on in the background while I worked the rest of the day. I’ll probably do something similar this year.
I think it would be better if they did fewer videos and gave people breaks.
