CM TeleSummit – Proactive Leadership – Karl Bastian
There are several people who have spoken thus far that I really admire and whom I have learned a lot from. That said, I feel compelled to mention my great respect for Karl Bastian. His heart for children is evident in all he does. More importantly though, I think, his heart for those who minister to children is admirable. That said, here are my notes from Karl’s presentation at the CMTelesummit.
Introduction
