Attendees will again participate in a "bookscan" process where each person scans a small section of the book and discusses what he/she read. You don't need to have read the book to participate. 

Evolve grads, current Evolve participants, and guests are invited to attend.

Please register so we can plan appropriately.

About the books:

A tribe is any group of people, large or small, who are connected to one another, a leader, and an idea. For millions of years, humans have been seeking out tribes, be they religious, ethnic, economic, political, or even musical (think of the Deadheads). It's our nature.

Now the Internet has eliminated the barriers of geography, cost, and time. All those blogs and social networking sites are helping existing tribes get bigger. But more important, they're enabling countless new tribes to be born--groups of ten or ten thousand or ten million who care about their iPhones, or a political campaign, or a new way to fight global warming.
And so the key question: Who is going to lead us?

This discussion will make you think about leading others in new initiatives. It's not easy, but it's easier than you think.
