Aligning for Growth at BOLD Summit 2015

BOLD Summit 2015 Focus

Aligning for Growth

As the economy gains its footing and your business picks up, you are faced with a new set of challenges.

Aligning your business for growth is the new adaption that will determine who wins in this new business environment.

Unlike the previous years, where conservation and strategic cuts were the name of the game, now the season has changed and the game is on; Flourish and expand as strategically and as quickly as you can.

Attending the BOLD Summit this year will propel you forward in two main areas:

Day 1: External Alignment for Growth – Brand development and publicity
Day 2: Internal Alignment for Growth – Building a power team and process flow

One of the key benefits of the BOLD Summit is that it not only provides the knowledge you need, but the relationships you need as well.

Do you have a few projects that are well suited for a specific magazine you’ve been targeting and want a personal introduction?

This is why we are having editors from 5 major publications break out into small groups and meet with you personally.

When you register, you select the editor or publisher you’d like to meet. Groups are limited to 20 people and it is first come first serve. If you have been targeting Traditional Home, Interiors magazine, Robb Report Home and Style, Form Architectural Magazine or Balcony Press Book Publishing, this is your chance to meet them, ask them your personal questions and even have a portfolio review, right there at the conference!

You’ll also get opportunities to meet and mingle at the BOLD cocktail party, meals and breaks, topic dinners and the BOLD After-party. This is a powerful combination and only a small part of the benefit you will receive from attending this extraordinary, invite-only event.

YOU ARE MEANT FOR GREAT THINGS

This week I have been reminded over and over again how important it is for us to keep on striving for what we want. Stretching toward our growth edge.  Before you can blast through that barrier, before you overcome the challenge and step up your game, you MUST know your “WHY”.  Why do you reach so hard. Why do you want it?

Know that you can. In fact, if you feel this drive and your inner knowing tells you there is something more for you, don’t you dare stop! You know there is greatness in you. I see the greatness in you. Learn what you need to learn, make the connections you need to make, put the pieces together. Create your life fervently! Stretch, bloom, reach, run!

What were you put on this earth to do?  What are you built for? What screams on the inside trying to burst free?  What is your GIFT!?  You have a gift and it is so important! It is your great honor and responsibility, should you choose to accept the challenge, to do whatever it TAKES to manifest your greatest desires.  Your passion is your calling in this world. Do NOT take this lightly!

I see you as so precious. I’m not sure you understand. I don’t know if you see what I see.  You literally are a link in the chain of the transformation our world is waking up to.  Your role as a designer is pivotal to creating a beautiful and amazing future our grandchildren will enjoy. YOU change the world; one soul at a time, one space, one family, one community at a time.  The extent that you can use your gift, is the extent to which you become more of who you are.  This is how you bloom! Using your gift is how you bloom. Creating a thriving design firm is how you bloom. Creating masterpieces on a regular basis is HOW you open up to the world and radiate your light! You can do this. You were born to do this.

I have been given a gift as well. A purpose in this world that runs through my very being. It is my burden and my bliss. It is always my great honor.

My gift is to nourish you… so that YOU can change to world.

That is MY “Why”.

Let’s DO this.
