Lecture Series
Our purpose is to bring extraordinary, vision-driven, value-guided leaders to speak in Worcester.
All program and operational expenses to establish the lecture series were donated. Speaker stipend and future operational costs will be sustained through contributions. Contribution proceeds benefit the Diocese of Worcester Adopt-A-Student Program in memory of Bill O'Brien. Bill established the program under Bishop Harrington to assist children most in need of tuition assistance attending a local catholic school. $62,500 has been donated since the lecture series was established in 2005.
2009 – "Moving from Being Served to Serving"
Greed and self-centeredness contributed to the economic morass in which we find ourselves. What will lead us out? Larry Brandon and Peter Senge speak to the role serving rather than being served as the answer. – October 22, 2009
