The Ring in the Rubble: Dig Through Change and Find Your Next Golden Opportunity.
The ring represents the golden opportunity every change creates. The rubble represents the disruption, fear and uncertainty that change often stirs up. Gary will share ten strategies for finding opportunity within every change. You will hear inspiring stories and examples of how other leaders have used these tools to turn change and tough times into amazing opportunities. Finally, you will be challenged and inspired to take practical steps to better yourself, your organization, and all those you have the opportunity to serve and influence.

Clients like IBM, Kodak, FedEx, eBay, Sam's Club and Walt Disney have asked him to share his unique and penetrating insights into what it takes to succeed in today's rapidly changing business world.

There will also be the following breakout sessions: Personality Characteristics of Great Leaders, Social Media for Cause-Related Marketing, and Success Strategies of Local Leaders. Our breakout speakers are all successful business people from the Lincoln area.

See you there!

 

Meet the Staff of PCM:
 Jackie Miley
 
Jackie Miley joined the staff of the People's City Mission Distribution Center approximately 5 years ago.  When asked what brought her to PCM she said that she believes that the Lord brought her here.
 
Jackie receives a great deal of joy from serving others.  She sees her job as an opportunity to serve the Lord by showing His love to others, not only by praying with people that come her way, but also by showing His love to others through her actions.
 
She says the hardest part of her job is to see  impoverished children who have no control over their circumstances, but she does whatever she can to help them.
 
Jackie said, "I can honestly say that I love my job!"
And we love her, thank you for all that you do!  See below for more information about some of the services that Jackie and the Distribution Center provide for our community.

PCM Distribution Center
 Located at 2101 "N" st.
 
Many people don't know about the People's City Mission's Distribution Center, so we would like to share a little bit about what we do there.
 
Our Distribution Center is where we receive the majority of the donations that come to PCM.  It not only supplies our shelter, but many families in the community as well.  In fact, through our Distribution Center we provide food, clothing and household items to over 900 families in the community each week.  Any family that is within 150% of the poverty level can come to the DC and receive assistance.
 
As Mike Hood (the Director of our DC) puts it, "We try to help relieve some of their expenses so that they can afford to pay their rent or mortgage."  The Distribution Center is just one of the services we provide to help prevent homelessness.
 
Everything that is donated to the PCM is given away to people in need completely free of charge.  This year alone, we are on track to provide One Million pounds of food the community of Lincoln, by the end of this year, and all of it given out completely free.
 
How are we able to do this?  By the generosity of our donors and the faithful service of our dedicated volunteers, without you none of this would be possible.  Thank you Lincoln, for caring for those in need and reaching out a hand to help those less fortunate!
