To say it was great is simplistic, yet true. Actually it wasn’t great, it was GREAT! Other adjectives we heard were “best meeting ever,” “estupendo,” “historic” and “emocionante.”

Managers and staff people with their respective stations for only months or weeks mixed with those who have years of experience. The information sharing, the relationship building, the camaraderie, the “we tried this and it worked” tips – were all such an important part of the Summit.
