June 18, 2009: The Executive Hour, hosted by The Marketplace Network at the Del Rio Country Club, began the first of a seven part series by Dr. Franklin Santagate. This month’s topic was “Vision is Vital”. Dr. Santagate focused on the absolute importance of dreams and vision for significance in life. “Every great vision is born of a dream and without great vision there can be no significance. While we can accomplish success for ourselves, we can only achieve significance by serving others”, said Santagate. Tom Changnon, Superintendent of Stanilaus County Schools, stated, “Recently, I was visiting and old friend who was 90 years of age. He said to me, ‘Tom, if your memories begin to outnumber your dreams, the end is near”. Fill-in-the-blanks curriculum is used for the meeting and handed out to all in attendance. It is also available upon request. After the presentation there is time for table discussion and sharing. The meeting is designed for C-class executives and up to gather and develop a network of relationships.
